With the storm that we had on Tuesday, I didn’t get around to fully finishing this piece until today. Speaking of the nor’easter, we were very lucky here. The wind was fierce, but no limbs or branches landed on any wires or on my roof. Lots of limbs and branches came down, so clean up has kept me busy for a few days. We are used to nor’easters in the winter, but the fact that the trees were still fully foliated caused major headaches for many. I lost my lights, phone, cable, and internet intermittently for a day or two, but folks further south down to the Cape were without power for several days.
This piece is Fright Night by the Fat Quarter Shop. I started it quite a while ago and stitched on it off and on. Let me just say that the house section took forever!!! Though Halloween is over, I’m going to leave it up for a week or so to enjoy it.
Just Cross Stitch magazine puts out a special Halloween issue each year, and these two pieces appealed to my sense of humor. Each took about three or four nights to stitch.
It was good to hear that there wasn't lasting damage with the storm in your area. Being without power/internet/etc is a bummer though. Glad your issues were intermittent! Your embroidery pieces are so cute! I can't imagine how long it took to stitch that house though!!!
