Stitch-tober Week 3

 My border on the Festive Fob is stitched. Next up, I'll be joining the seams to form a humbug.

The third block of 2020 Halloween Mix and Match is done. The cat isn't as much be black as it is gray. I'll be moving on with the borders and other blocks this week.

Stitch-tober Week 2

 I touched a few of my projects last week but it's hard to tell. I ran out of  threads while working on Moonlit Garden so no finish there. I was able to order 2 of the three threads that I need to continue work on this piece. For the third thread I scavenged a couple of other projects and I think I may have enough leftovers of the third color to complete Moonlit Garden. Keeping a good thought.

Block 2 of 2020 Halloween Mix nd Match is done.

Next up will be a black cat in the top right box.
Beaded and ready to be finished.

Finished, shaped and hanging on the tree.
This was a simple finish. Black felt was glued to the back with black ribbon added for hanging. I used a white craft glue that dries clear.

 I worked a little on Nevermore, by Lila's Studio and Fat Quarter Shop's,  Fright Night but didn't get very far. I hope I'll have enough progress to warrant a picture next post.

Thanks for stopping by

Stitch-tober 2020: Week 1.5

 I spent last week working on FQS 2020 Halloween Mix and Match and their Fright Night Stitch-tober SAL. I also finished the stitching Mill Hill's Glowing Pumpkin, from the Painted Pumpkin series

The border is available as a free download from Fat Quarter Shop and the images to Mix and Match are from Lori Holts' Stitch cards.  
The first block is done. I opted for hot chocolate with whipped cream and chocolate bits. I'm not a pumpkin spice girl. Next will be the Jack o Lantern. 
Fright Night is being stitched on Hazey Gray, by Fabric Flair, with WDW over dyes. Week One included the word 'Halloween" and a spider hanging in its web from the letters E-N. Week 2 is a bat and moon to the right. I have the bat started and I'm thinkig about using DMC or Krinek glow in the dark for the moon.

Today I started the beading on Glowing Pumpkin. Hope to finish it up this week. Next up is this Autumn Harvest kit, Moonlit Owl. My colors are sorted and ready to go. This little design takes 12 floss colors, 5 bead colors and a MH treasure, to bring it to life.
In between Mix and Match, Fright Night and Moonlit Owl, I plan to continue working on Blackbird Design's Moonlit Garden, and Lila Studio's Nevermore. I would really like a finish on Moonlit Garden this month.
