NIght Creature

I am definitely getting into the Halloween mood, so I thought I would dig up a few past projects! After perusing the blog a few nights ago, I realized this Night Creature is one of my oldest WIPs, from the Gathering Place.

Which Witch?

When I am feeling lost, I often scroll through the pages of this blog. Each project reminds me of where I was in life and who I spent the many hours with stitching away with a cup of tea in hand.
I realized tonight that not only have my hands sat idle for the past 2 years, but so has the dialogue the Mother, Crone and I maintained through this blog. Time, distance, a lack of Wi-Fi, and an inability to stitch have created a void in this blog, and I will attempt to fill it with projects never posted and updates left unsaid.

Making a Q snap change

The Mother is faster at stitching than I am at updating!
 

She also has been kitting away, you may see some interesting Chatelaine's in the near future!

Toiling Away

Here is the latest progress of the Mother's Halloween stitch, so much to fill in but who could complain when working with specialty threads?

Toil and Trouble

It is that time of year again where a chill creeps into the air and stitchers everywhere put needle and thread to Halloween inspired projects!
The Mother has been the only one of us three to stitch this year, but that does not mean the Crone and I have been idle! More on that to come...

She began a new project this evening, Toil and Trouble from Plum Street Samplers.

I am amazed at her progress in just one sitting!
