Halloween cross stitch

Happy Halloween!

I stitched this last Halloween, using mostly free alphabet charts that I found online, and I still don't know how I'll finish it.

a sad goodbye

Our little cat Smudge passed away yesterday. She was 20 years old. Smudge came to live with us when she was just 6 weeks old. She will be missed!

Here's my part 4 and most of part 5 --

Székely Sampler SAL - part three

Here's my part three. I modified the pattern a bit to make it symmetrical -- and because I love the little "bellflower" motif so much I wanted to stitch it twice. I am a bit behind. Lots of stitchers are already done with part four.

Székely Sampler SAL - part two

Here's an update on my progress. I'm really enjoying this SAL. Tomorrow I'll start part three. The colors I used look much prettier in my previous post. This photo came out a little dark.

Székely Sampler SAL

I have joined an Hungarian SAL -- there is a link in my sidebar and in my profile. This is the beginning of my very first SAL. I am stitching with DMC flower thread in 2 shades of pink and 2 shades of green -- 2760, 2761, 2504 & 2503 -- on white 32 count Belfast linen.

watch and pray
