Behold:
“A Quaker Halloween Sampler” by Cherished Stitches
on 40ct. ivory linen with Thread Gatherers’ Silk ‘N Colors of my choosing
I will have to do some snipping of hanging chads on the back, but it is done. I looked back & my first post about this was March 30, 2010. I did enjoy every minute of this one, though., even though I screwed up the bottom. Here’s my fix:
I also threw in a couple of more bats and an extra cat in some of the unintended large voids.
I imagine I’ll find a couple of missed stitches when I do my snipping.
I just received my fabric for “Winter at Beacon House” from the Jan/Feb Just Cross Stitch magazine. I have to get my floss- there is a large quantity of floss required for that one, 5 skeins of the white, 4 of the oatmeal, 3 of the sea blue and reds, etc., plus all the individual skeins. I also have my eye on starting Christmas at Hawk Run Hollow, which I received as a Christmas gift 2 years ago. I have the fabric for that one too, and I have all the DMCs, and I think I bought the required multiple skeins of ice blue over dyed. I also need to get back to Hilltop Seasons. That’s been collecting dust in my bag….

I just spent the last little while going back through your posts with pictures of the Quaker Halloween Sampler in progress. You did a fantastic job...it's beautiful. You should be very pleased!
I also found a few recipes I had forgotten about.
I love how that turned out, with the orange accents! Sounds like you're getting your projects lined up for winter...hard to believe it'll be fall soon.
Wow! Looks great. Nice job. {Clap clap}
I love it! I know that I've seen it all along the journey but I still love it. You did some additions. We're proud because you took some of our advice.
LOVE IT!!!!!
