I love Halloween so I'm taking part in it again! If things sound stilted, it's because I'm out of practice so please bear with me.

My stitching today is the Good Witch, just newly FFOd. She is sitting on her backing fabric. Good Witch comes from the 2017 Fall issue of the Punch Needle and Primitive Stitcher magazine, using 36ct Straw linen with the called for floss. The white dots in her dress are eyelet stitches which I was horrified to find that they were used! I mostly avoid specialty stitches but I put on my big girl panties and just did it!


Mwahaha, with gnashing of the teeth!!

Your next job is to collect this letter


And to head on over to:

to collect another letter to solve the Mystery Phrase.

Happy Halloween!!

    Thanks for taking part in the Halloween Blog Hop this year. Sorry but I can only comment on your posts using my laptop, not my iPad hence the late comment.
    I do love your Witch, great choice for the Hop.
