Witch's Treat

We go to a Halloween party each year and I give the hostess a gift each year-it's always Halloween related as she is a HUGE Halloween person and it's usually something I have made. I decided to stitch this one for her this year :) I think she will love it :) I KNOW she will "dig" the green fabric I dyed for it :) I went with the same finish I used for Scatter Pumpkins as I know she will have a place to hang this in her foyer :)I added some green pearl head pins to this one :) I just love how it turned out :)




Designer: Shepherd's Bush
Fabric : 28ct. Hand-dyed by BeckySC
Fibers: DMC
Date Started: 10-11-2010
Date Finished: 10-12-2010


Thank you so much dear readers for visiting :) PLEASE do come again :)
hugs and love from SC,
BeckySC

Becky, I am having computer issues at home and have sent you an email VIA my work email. It is frowned upon at work to go online for our leisure but I wanted you to know I am reading and just can't get over the gorgoues pieces you are finishing. That hostess is ONE lucky lady! This piece is gorgeous.

Becky, you continue to amaze me with your dedication and productivity in stitching! I don't I love the process of stitching, but the finish part of it, not so much... Your finishes are inspiring. Congrats.

It turned out wonderfully Becky, so are you coming to my house for Halloween? LOL

Sandy In Montana said...

This is just so adorable, Becky.
The more I see of the "sign" style finish the more I think a trip to the Home Depot is in order.

Take Care & Happy Stitching
Hugs, Sandy
