My Sunday Stitchy Update 10/25/20

 Hi friends :)  

Yes; I know that it is Monday! Last night I forgot it was Sunday until after I was all comfy in my bed. So I will make this a quick post. 

This week I have been playing catch up with my Halloween SAL.

So I added the toilet paper - not to sure it looks like toilet paper though and as of last night I was all caught up with the squares except for the backstitch. Next week it will be finished and I can move on to Naughty November with Rachel!

You can read the concept of Naughty November at the bottom of this post. Rachel plans on starting during each full weekend in November but I am a Monday starter so I will start on the first Monday until I have four new starts. It is open to everyone so please feel free to join in!! No sign up required, just post on your blog. Not sure if there will be some kind of link up but let me know if you join in so I won't miss out on your new starts! 

Thanks so much for stopping by,

see ya next week with another faithful update!

My Sunday Stitchy Update 10/18/20

Hi friends! I hope that you have been having a great week. We are still having high temperatures but have finally fallen below 100! 

This week I continued working on the Halloween piece for a few days but then she gave us a toilet paper motif for Saturday which I was not to excited about so I didn't work on it that day and I will pick it up (hopefully) again tomorrow and skip that square for the time being while I look for something that will fit in that space.

My Sunday Stitchy Update 10/11/20

Halloween is fast approaching! Do you celebrate Halloween? I know that in a lot of places Halloween is new to them and/or not as popular as it is here in the States. Are you stitching anything for the holiday?

Right now I am stitching two designs for Halloween. I was trying to do some on each everyday but by Tuesday I gave that up and decided each will get worked on every other day. 

First up I joined Caitlin's Witch-A-Long! That is a fun little name she gave it. The witch is a cutie and I changed a couple of things on her but I love how she turned out.

I am also working on the Stitchonomy SAL. The designer; Alicia releases a small motif each day that goes into the frame of the design.  Today I back stitched the ones I already stitched and hope to catch up on the days tomorrow. Here is it thru the 9th.

I had to move the Eye of the Newt to a different location since I added an eye to the Crystal Ball and that is why it looks so lonely all by itself.  I didn't want all the eyeballs to be in one area! 

Now I do stitch a lot of Halloween designs but sadly this year we will not be participating in Halloween. We have decided not even to decorate so that we don't mislead trick or treaters into thinking we may be giving out candy. This year with the COVID virus still out there and spreading everyday we think it is to risky to open our door to people we don't know and exchanging candy and the hugs many of the small kiddos like to give. I pray that this virus will be under control one day soon and the world can return to a kinder and happier place for all. 

Hope you all have a great stitchy week
