Unfortunately I do not have ANY shades of gray for the knife blade, so I’ll have to make a stop today & pick some up.
Do I feel a little bad that I used a handprint pattern that was supposed to be cute and baby-themed for my bloody handprint? A little

Here we are! I don’t know about you, but October is the official start of holiday season in my house. Decorations are up and excitement is high. Let’s translate that to some stitchy momentum! 
Since we did not reach our threshold for the drawing last quarter, I am counting all stitches from way back in April for this quarter’s drawing. @Abbeeroad, @jemimah, @wittychild, @Dooney, @jellybean, and @Immaculata all earned entries in the drawing! Woohoo! And the winner is…
@Immaculata!!! Congratulations! I’ll send you a PM about your prize! 
For the next three months we will have random holiday themes. Our themes for October are:
In addition, you may use Halloween as your theme.
We will be taking a break from BINGO for the quarter. We can revisit the idea for the new year if folks are interested.
Happy stitching!

Yayyy!! Thanks! I was just thinking it was a shame I didn’t get around to finishing anything this month, but how cool is it to win something anyway 
Hopefully I’ll get around to stitching something this month, the themes are great.
I was at a few galleries today in Dublin. This woman was exhibiting in a major gallery. Her painting was incredible and she also had a wall of embroidery hoops. Her themes are on women’s reproductive rights in Ireland. Jennifer Trouton if anyone is on Insta.
This was half of the artwork showing the embroidery.
This is her painting in case you’re interested, this was about 4’6

I didn’t know if I was going to get the second one done, but I made it!
Presenting orange:
And bones:
Both are Satsuma Street kits from her 2022 Halloween collection - I got all 4 as a gift and these are my 2nd and 3rd finishes. Her designs are always so bright and fun!
They’re stitched on black 14-count perforated paper, and backed with glittery black felt.
Thanks for looking!
