Yay! I get to start the gallery with this awesome piece from my partner, @Kwality570 ! Did you guys know that I got to meet this fantastic artist in July at a mini meet-up in Michigan? I was too embarrassed to ask for an autographā¦lolā¦but seriously, this is why I admire her so muchā¦look at the details and thought that went into this lovely cross stitch!
Bonus: it is practical and will hold my Halloween themed threads!
Thank you, everyone! And just look at this marvelous piece that I received from @AIMR. Those tiny stitches. That awesome border cord, the beautiful shades of orange and green she chose! This is so absolutely stunning. I love it so very much!!! I cannot fully express my gratitude.
I wanted to wait until I received from both of my partners before I posted and I received from @irid3sc3nt today!
She sent me this adorable smiling pumpkin
@kittykill outdid herself with this amazing panel.
Thanks so much! I love them both!

@irid3sc3nt Wowā¦I wish I could figure out how to change a pattern! I love that you turned the scary frown into a smile! Did you make it up as you went or did you plot it out? I want to make that pattern and would love to do the mouth two ways! I think it would be fun to give to a friend of mine who is in the theater!
@kittykill lovely workā¦I have that pattern as well but havenāt tackled it because black thread is hard to seeā¦your stitching is so neat!
I enlarged the pattern and figured out where I would, um, turn the frown upside down. Once it was finished, I added two extra stitches because it looked a little too blocky. I thought it was interesting how the original pattern is not symmetrical.
Your idea for your theater friend sounds like it would be very fun⦠tragedy and comedy, right?

I thought it was just me that made mistakesā¦I did miscount on one side but I āfixedā it and it didnāt seem noticeable since it was already asymmetrical! Lucky me!
Iāll get some graph paper and see if I can figure it outā¦and yes, tragedy and comedy!
Check out this witch making something in her cauldron. Something pumpkin-y!
We sent flat to each other so we can do whatever we want with the final product. I was thinking I was going to frame this, but now I kinda want it as part of a decorative pillowcase.
Thank you, momimae!
