Halloween in March? Not a scary thought, though, because we have MONTHS to go before Halloween! Little Stitch Girl sent us home her trunk show from Market this Spring... so we have all of these on display in the shop! We brought home her 13-part Spooky Hollow Village set, too, click through to see them all! Holiday Banner Halloween - Just a cute little house with a graveyard in the front yard, and it's 'inhabitant' flying overhead. The Happy Halloween words are stitched on perforated paper, cut out, and strung together across the piece - over the needlework. Charted for DMC, finishes 8 x 10 on 32ct. Nightmare on Plaid Street - A trio of colorful little houses, they are Halloween without being scary. The spiders from the trees are ok... the Jacks are smiling, and the ghosts don't look too mean. The finishing treatment on these is cute... she's made them into flat boards and glued sticks into the candle sticks, then poked the sticks up into the insides of the flats. It's a good finish because you can perch these in between pumpkins and things and they'll be tall enough to be seen. Haunted Hill Road - Trick or Treat, smell My feet! Another cute and happy halloween-y design, really simple, but really cute! Charted for DMC or hand-dyeds it finishes just 6 x 11 on 32ct. Fun the kitchen countertop, you could finish it around a paper mache round box, and make it into a candy bucket! (Any good grandma needs to have Halloween candy on her counter!) Probably Haunted - 'If one door closes and another door opens, your house is probably haunted.' Well there you go! Choose a fun fabric color, and stitch this for your favorite Realtor!
The Spooky Hollow Set A darling little village of Halloween happiness... you can stitch these individually and decorate all over the place, they're just cute as can be. This was originally published (not even sure all of it was though) in small card format - with pics that were hard to see and enjoy. Jorden has re-done them all into full color half-sized charts on super-heavy card stock. Her publishing is lovely, so these are a joy to work from. Her whole little set of Halloween businesses measures 100 stitches high... but super long... if you stitch it all in a row. She designed the stone pathway to connect from chart to chart, so that's kind of fun. She also has border charts and options on her website for these. Each part is offered in its own chart, all follow the same color scheme of Classic Colorworks with touches of DMC. I wrote descriptions for just a few. Here we go! #1 Bed & Breakfast - Little mummys run the place, and somebody is snoring upstairs in one of the bedrooms. Decorate your Guest Room with this! #2 Coffee Shop - The witches are brewing it right outside in the cauldron! Safe to drink! Display this by your coffee station. #3 Dance Hall - Dracula is doing the Monster Mash with his ghost and mummy partners! Stitch this for a dancer in your life! #7 Sweet Shop - Well, this is the best place ever to Trick or Treat! This would make a cute candy bucket decoration. #10 Bootique - I love this! It's the dress shoppe for witch, ghost and Dracula clothes! #12 Stitchery - Well, our favorite, The Spider's Web! Our goal, though is to have NO spider webs on our shop!
