Thank you so much for tuning in to the Cozyegg flosstube/podcast! In this episode I share my first two starts for #darkoctoberstitching, more framed pieces, and my plans for the rest of the month.
SALs
- Join Emily (eclecticpossessions) and I on Instagram for #dark13stitching where we stitch on something dark and creepy on the 13th of every month and you can also join us for #darkoctoberstitching during the whole month of October.
- Join the Hawk Run Hollow SAL hosted by Abi Bellastitch and I – on Instagram you can use the #hrhvillagesal if you’re stitching on Village and/or use the tag #letsallmovetohawkrunhollow for any Hawk Run pieces. Abi set up a Facebook group called Let’s All Move to Hawk Run Hollow if you’d like to join!
Finishes
Finishing on Wicked – Wicked by the Primitive Needle – stitched one over one on 30ct Antique Cotton by R&R with the called for Belle Soie silks. My second time stitching this, you can see the first one here. I stitched this one for the Halloween ornament exchange for the Tudor Rose Sampler Guild. I’ll link to the post of all the ornaments as soon as it’s posted on the guild’s blog.
