Yep, I'm headed out to do a little dog sitting for a
friend for a few days. I LOVE doggies, so there
will be lots of cuddles and kisses :)
Since I will be away I thought I'd show you the
Halloween piece that I finished stitching up today.
I still have to do the finishing on it, but that
will have to wait till my return.
Meet......"Beggar's Night"
I really get into decorating for Halloween, so I knew
I wanted to design something special for it this year.
I must say I'm quite pleased with how it
stitched up. Stitched on 35ct R & R Reproductions
Abecedarian Blend linen with DMC floss.
The model will be on display in the
R & R Reproductions Room #612
Abecedarian Blend linen with DMC floss.
The model will be on display in the
R & R Reproductions Room #612
at the TNNA show next month.
So, look for the release then.

I also wanted to show you what my friend Sharon
stitched up. Her blog is MousecraftUSA
"Ohio Treasure Sampler"
How absolutely gorgeous. She changed it up a bit
and stitched it on 30ct R & R Cafe Kona with the
called for Gentle Art floss if she had it. If not
she used the DMC substitution or whatever she had
that was close to the color.
WOW....A real make do sampler.
I love it so much Sharon. Swoon :)))
Thanks my friend for stitching it so beautifully and
sharing it too.
Well, better get packed. I'm taking lots of stitching
with me. Thanks for stopping by and can't wait to
hear what you think of Beggar's Night!
Hugs, ~Nan
