Halloween Stichin'

This week I pulled out my needles, my aida, some Gentle Arts Sampler Threads, and a Lizzie*Kate chart from 1999 and did a little stitching. It felt awfully good to have a tapestry needle in my hand again.

I completed this little design, then made it into a greeting card for my auntie. The chart called for a spider charm, but the one I had I already used on a pillow. So I made the little spider with two sizes of beads and legs of floss. It's adorable!

I kept the inside very simple.

Here's what the spider charm looks like on my pillow.
