A FINISH!

 SCAREDY CATS! 

A Lizzie Kate Pattern

This project was an old Work In Progress that I decided to pull out and finish. I'm giving it to my daughter-in-law. She will be using it to make a Halloween pillow. The pattern calls for 26 count Black Heatherfield using two ply overdyed sampler threads. I'm fairly certain that I did use the same fabric. I definitely used the overdyed sampler threads. Stitch count is 128W x 75H. Approximate design size is 10 inches x 6.5 inches. Below is a photo of the finished piece (prior to giving it to my DIL.

Boo Club Update

Making progress!!  The major stitching is complete.  I'm working on finishing up the border and then there are small details to do.  Little buttons for eyes, stems on pumpkins, some confetti stitches here and there.  I would have been further along but had to do some adjusting in the lower section.  Had to remove a good portion of the lower border and move it over to correct my error.  It wasn't too bad to fix; could have been much worse.  Here's a few pictures of the progress.

Boo Club

I started Boo Club by Lizzie Kate a good while back.  I'm really close to finishing!  Only one more section after the one I'm working on.  Then I'll finish up the border and add some little details like buttons for eyes, etc.

Thanks for stopping by.

Update on Spell Bound by Glendon Place

Here's a short update on my progress of Spell Bound by Glendon Place.  Happy to have this section complete and move on to the next.

GHOSTS

I finally made some progress on the next project.  These little guys were so cute, I just

had to make them.  I came up with my own faces for them.  It's

amazing what you can do with measuring spoons, measuring cups, and other various

things you have in your kitchen.  I will be moving these outside to the

front porch soon.  For now, they posed in the kitchen to have

their picture made.

PUMPKIN PATCH

I finished the first set and I think it turned out pretty neat.  This project was really very simple, but just a little time consuming.  I'm currently doing a second set for a friend.  Hope she likes them as much as I do.

 

 



NEW PROJECT IN THE MAKING...

This project is close to completion.  Just a couple more things to do.  I'm hoping it will turn out really cute.  It is super inexpensive to do.  That makes it even better!  Will post an After photo as soon as it is done.

OUT THE DOOR

A little background for those that don't read my Facebook page...I have been making and selling scissor fobs to a needlepoint store in Connecticut for a few months now.  The most current order shipped this past Tuesday and hopefully have arrived safe and sound.  The store is having a trunk show and guest artist there today, so maybe most of the fobs will sell also.  This was the fifth order I have done for them.  This one was five Halloween and five Christmas ones.  Picture below.
