Halloween finishes

I can't believe that September is almost over and Halloween will be here soon.  For once, I actually have my new decorations done in time.  Yippee!!!!

This cute little black bird was a freebie in the Primitive Stitches Society and he worked up really fast.  He's stitched on a Black Cauldron fabric using DMC floss

This one is a Lizzie Kate Limited Edition kit and I absolutely loved stitching it.  The colors are so cheerful and fun to work with.  The little design was suppose to be a scissor fob but I just made a little stand up out of it.

This is a Hands on Design pattern that is a wonderful design to have out anytime of year.  I really like Cathy's designs and this one was a fun stitch.

This wooden thread holder I just couldn't resist.  The Wouidja Board is the thread minder and the pointer is magnetic and becomes your needle minder.  Is that neat or what!!

Then Debbie had these beautiful primitive hornbooks and the opening at the top is in the shape of an acorn.  The design I picked to mount on it is Blessings Abound by Plum Street Samplers.  I'm not sure yet what count fabric I'm going to have to use but I'm determined to make it fit.
Well those are my finishes for this Halloween.  
I'm going to have a Halloween giveaway in celebration of our first great grandchild due on Halloween.  It will start on the first so check back....you don't want to miss this one.
Blessings Abound, Barbara

Wow, Barbara! What a lovely assortment of finishes you have stitched and finished! What fabric did you use for the Give Thanks piece by Hands On Design? Looking forward to seeing Blessings Abound stitched up.
