Hannah's RR

Here's what I stitched for Hannah's RR...I chose to stitch the "cat in the moon" by Prairie Schooler from the leaflet entitled "Pumpkin Patch".

Here's the whole layout....I really like it:


Here's my humble part:
I fell sort of skimpy that is all I stitched, but I think it goes well with Hannah's theme stitching from the same leaflet...and the new Halloween one from Prairie Schooler has a 4 patch with great designs that would work too....just my 0.02 worth...

HEADS UP Donna....this beauty is coming your way! (tomorrow)

Vonna's RR finished and to be mailed to Donna

WHEW! The majority of this weekend was spent stitching this RR...I finally slipped the last stitch in pumpkin face just a few short minutes ago! Thank heaven it is i finished!

Here is my layout to date - graciously held outside by my daughter Katie:

This is an inside shot - thus a bit darker:


I used primarily Blackbird Designs for this one
(the Trix or Treat Crow, the pumpkin verse and the Jack-o-lantern is BBD. The tree/cat/pumpkin is Plum Pudding Needleart- portion from Salem Inn design)
I can sleep easy tonight knowing its packed and waiting mailing to Donna tomorrow.
I guess my "theme" is antique sampler...but really anything will do there are squares on each side of the crow and three at the top and three at the bottom for a total of 8...so I guess that means I'll have to stitch another block when it gets home...right now my brain ain't computin' so there ya have it!
Now to start my Summer House Exchange....argh! Too many deadlines!!!
HUGS to all Witchy Stitcher's...I think today I may have to change the "w" to a "b" to suit my mood! LOL!

Vonna's Spooky RR

Hello Fellow Spooky Stitchers!
I've spent the last 4+ hours working on graphing out/laying out my Halloween RR and I think it is FINISHED!!! (well the graphing - that is... I still have to do the fabric layout and block bastings...and the stitching too but....I'm not thinking about that YET!)

I have a stained this 32 ct. linen to use for the RR:



And my contribution to the RR is going to be the center block as the Crow with the Witches hat on that says "Trix or Treat" and then above that I'm stitching the "Merry Halloween" as seen in this photos of the cover and interior page of Blackbird Designs book "Trix or Treat":


Then I have around these two stacked central squares a "U" shape with 4 side squares (2 on each side) that measures 50W x 50H with a 50W x 10H "signature block" beneath each square. And then the across the bottom of the RR (forming the U) is 3 blocks that measure 60W x 60H with a 60W x 10H signature block below each square.
Framing the whole "DEAL" is a primitive border that I think I'm going to do in a dark blackish color.
Total stitched area of the piece: 238 x 236 - which translates into a stitched area of: 14 3/4 x 14 3/4....almost the perfect size for what I'm wanting to do with it when completed - which is make a Seasonal Quilt using this fabric (If I win it on ebay):


And then hang it in my foyer on my quilt rack for my seasonal displays! HURRAY! Think it will all come together? I sure do hope so!

Thanks for looking ;) I love it when my ideas firm up into something tangible!

HOWDY DOO!

You scary stitchers ;)

Thank you to Donna for letting me join! WaaaaHOOO and a big BOO!



Ideas are just floating and floating thorugh my head! I'm going to Hobby Lobby today and get some rit to try my hand at dying some fabric suitable to this cause.



I believe that I'm going with a Halloween "HOUSE" to decorate theme - I have a couple of really cool Halloween House charts that I've been really wanting to stitch and I think the "squares" for you all to stitch can be anything related to Halloween that you would "decorate" the house with or to celebrate Halloween. Still in the infant stage...but we'll see what I can come up with over the next month...YIKES!



Glad to be here with a lovely set of stitchers ;0)

HUGS,

Vonna
