It is the night before Halloween and all the creepy, crawlies, scary, go bump in the night things are out and ready to party tomorrow. Sunday my LNS had a come and stitch with us and have some fun. The owners and some of the regulars cooked. There was chili, cornbread, cupcakes, and treats. Each stitcher was able to choose a goodie bag, you got several pieces of candy and also a coupon good for Sunday only with anything from 10 to 50% off. Mine had a 20% coupon. There was also a lottery draw for any in shop canvas $200 or less. I was trying with all my might to be good, but my so called friends kept telling me to get it AND when I asked my hubby what he thought he said if you want it get it. Well my will power was weak and I did it. I bought this canvas of Santa. I love his look and the animals and oh just everything about him. He is a painted canvas by Sandra Gilmore called Bless the Beasts, it is going to be massive as it is 28X22 but I can not wait to get started.
Since returning home I have done some catch up stitching. I have 1/2 of Pumpkin Splendor complete. That is my table topper. I finished the Antique Shop on my Spring Village by Stoney Creek. It is so awesome to see patterns come to life when you get the BS added. The only difference from the 2 pictures of the shop is I added the backstitching. Loving it.
The other thing is I started and finished the Lighthouse pattern I bought while on vacation. I will add the charms on in the location I have them set-up and then mount it and ta-da instant Christmas gift. I think my daughter will love it.
A much shorter post this time. I hope I did not over whelm you all with the last post.
Enjoy your stitching and will be on in a few weeks with a November update.
