October Halloween Blog Hop

Oh my goodness, it's Halloween and time for Jo's annual Halloween Blog Hop!  If you aren't sure what I'm talking about, head on over to Jo's blog Serendipitous Stitching and start at the beginning.  There will be instructions there.  

I'm so caught up with handing out candy and checking in on our little Boo...

I almost forgot to post the letter...so here it is!  The letter is ...  

So here is a little spooky banner I was sent in an exchange.  So much fun!  I haven't stitched anything spooky in a long while so hopefully I'll be excused LOL.  

I hope you all are having a wonderful time....to carry on with the blog hop, check out the next letter by clicking here http://chaosatlanta.blogspot.com  

Happy Hopping and  Happy Stitching! 

October Gifted Gorgeousness

Hello Fellow Stitchers!  It's that time of month when we showcase those things gifted...either to us or for others, or stitching items we are using that were gifted to us.  If you want to sign up for this adventure (it's never too late to join the fun) you can click here to take you to Jo's page who runs this challenge.  If you want to see what we are up to, you can click here to see all those participating and links to their page.  I have been stitching up a storm this month, but I don't have much to show at the moment.  I am participating in a Christmas exchange and I'm working toward finishing up the gifts for that exchange, and also for my pen pal.  Maybe next month I'll have more to show.  Here is what I have that I can show...  I have received my birthday gift from my Pen Pal.  She always treats me so well and sent such lovely things this year!  I truly have the best Pen Pal!! 

 

This chart was a gift from the designer.  I've been working really hard to keep ahead, but with all that went on in September I fell behind a bit.  As soon as I have all my gifts made I'll be back stitching on this.  It's called Cottage Garden SAL by Weihenberg.  I just love the pattern!!  

I stitched (and finished) this cute little Snowman Keeper, a freebie from the Drawn Thread.  It's stitched on 40 count Dapple over two....and I will say...finishing this sucker was a pain in my ahem...behind.  I doubt I'll ever show anyone the back...LOL!!  And I'm pretty sure I'll never stitch another one on 40 count (unless I'm suffering from Alzheimer's and forget).  

I'm also working on this SAL that was offered free by Linen and Threads in 2020.  I've finished the October portion...I love this one so much, though it's a challenge stitching on 36 count!!  

This last is a gift, and it was also offered as a free pattern at one time.  I liked it so much I stitched it twice and will keep this one for myself.  haha  This is Thankful & Blessed by Shannon Christine Designs.  

I guess that's all I have for this time.  Hopefully I'll have more next time.  Until then, stay safe and healthy and Happy Stitching!
