Welcome to Stitch Sew & Show ~ Week 43
I have completed the stitching October Cross Stitch Along!
I have pulled fabrics and have a plan
for how I want to finish and display this next October.
I completed the stitching on last block late on Halloween night.
I have been enjoying this for a few days while I have decided that a few on my stitches need to be fixed before finishing. There is a letter in "Brew" that somehow got messed up while I was working on this that needs replacing. I have also decided that the colored lettering on my Monster Mash improv block needs to be in black like the rest of the lettering. I was trying to add a little color. I am thinking of outlining the mummy and the skeleton to make them stand out better. This was the last block finished on Sunday night and my eyes were tired.
I loved participating in this SAL which was hosted by
as they will soon become a pattern for purchase.
were also free daily blocks and I saved them.
I did not have time to stitch this last year.
This year I am thinking to start it now in November
in hopes I get it done before Christmas.
I have the floss pack and aida in my stash.
I am trying to decide which aida to use.
They are all 11 count:
Choice B: hand dyed Antiqued
Choice C: hand dyed seafoam green
The Misty Grey in my October Cross Stich is also hand dyed 11 count aida from Garibald's. I like the soft feel of this cloth.
Which color aida cloth would you choose?
What are you working on this week?
Please share!
