HAPPY HALLOWEEN


I can't believe that October is gone so swiftly! First of all today was our 45th anniversary and we just spent a quiet day at home as we are planning to go to Lexington in a few days for a special dinner, lobster perhaps or scallops for me.


Thought a would post a photo of what I'm working on now, a Christmas present for my sister-in-law. I have reverse appliqued the angel to the back of a very nice medium, weight cotton that looks satiny. Then emblished it with lots of SRE, regular embroidery stitches and beading. I'm thinking of placing a satin border all around and then having the whole piece framed. It should finish at approx. 8"x 10" but we'll see.

Many more hearts...












Here are the next batch of hearts that I have made. I can't believe that I am already up to #26!! This has been so much fun and is very adictive; my hubby asked "how many more of these are you going to make?"!! I told him, until I get sick of them or run out of ideas.
