Hallowe'en Stitchery Hallows Eve

Finally...met another challenge. Here is my finished Hallows Eve  Pinkeep/Pillow by http://www.stacynashprimitives.com/  ...it was not quite as hard for me as my first Faithful Friends by Wendy of Pineberry Lane but I relaxed and really enjoyed stitching it into completion. I love it.

It has rained here so hard for days but my daughter took these photos for me inside her home...if you haven't tried it yet, please consider trying counted cross stitching...it is honestly so relaxing AFTER your first challenge, I think. The patterns out here in blog land are just unreal; it is a wonderful time to be a stitcher.  Michael's carries DMC threads , needles, lock hoops, and even Belgium Linen....coupons make it sweet, too when beginning. This is stitches on 32 count Belgium Linen, DMC Thread, aged with walnut crystals; the backing is of repo brown print calico. I am going to do the Xstitching around the seams, now:) thank you for visiting...glad I finished something else:)
