Little Bit of Halloween

Once August 1st hits, I start getting excited for fall and Halloween...

My stitching seems to really ramp up and I always seem to decide it is a good time to start (and hopefully finish) as many fall/Halloween pieces that I can.

This weekend has been a great start, started and finished three small patterns from Pineberry Lane...

The pattern is named "Three Little Witches" and I stitched them on different linens, using Dinky Dye Silks.

(The greenish fabric is a 32 count linen from Seraphim Fabrics, not sure of the color and the orange fabric is called Gingery by Hand Dyed Happiness. )

I love how they turned out and can't wait to fully finish them!  Hope everyone is having a terrific weekend; I am off to stitch more witches!

New Patterns

 Been working a lot this summer on some new cross stitch patterns for my Etsy shop (curiouscarrie)...

Very pleased with how they have all turned out and still have lots of ideas rolling around in my head...just need more hours in the day to stitch them all...

Up first, my patriotic patterns...

"From Sea to Shining Sea"

Model stitched on 28 count linen, using all DMC threads...

Next patriotic themed pattern...

"Home of the Brave"

Again, stitched on 28 count linen, using all DMC threads...

And the last patriotic themed pattern...

"USA"

Stitched on 28 count linen, with DMC threads...

Very cute pattern, that is super quick to stitch...

Last new pattern to show...

A cute fall piece (I love fall, its my favorite time of year)...

"The Pumpkin Patch"

Third in my patch series...

Stitched on 18 count Aida, that I dyed with coffee, using all DMC threads...

So, that is what I have been busy with the last few months and still lots more models to stitch...

Hope everyone is having a great summer and happy stitching!
