With 10 days left before Halloween I am so getting in the mood. I really do love the day, the colors and all things associated with it. BTW, who can pass up a piece of chocolate?

This is a NeedleDeeva canvas that I stitched as part of a Halloween Hearts club for Pocket Full of Stitches. Besides the ones that had cats…well, what were you thinking? This was my absolute favorite one! Ruching or mock bullions created her hair and even though it was sooooooooooooo much fun, it was very time consuming to create her wild and crazy hair. It was really worth the time and effort as I was thrilled with the way it came out.

Even Mother Nature paints in the most amazing color palette! Growing up on the East coast, the fall colors was something that I was used to every year and you just took it for granted. Now that I live on the West Coast, we don’t get color like this, but trust me I will trade in that beautiful changing colors for our weather any day!

A handful of friends have been making trips back East just to tour the colors. Enjoy! As kids, following the color changes was the work of raking up all those leaves. Followed up with the fun of falling into that pile of leaves!

Mooch has the right idea! and I am too busy to spend the day under the covers…but a lazy morning all under the covers with the fur children every so often isn’t a bad idea.

Sylvester is posing for his glamour shot! and until next time…keep on stitching
