More Halloween at the shop...

Love the hat Carolyn!!!! She is great at all things artistic....her hat was over the top!

A scary dessert.....

We had our annual pumpkin decorating party this weekend. We had a ball! I wanted to show you the dessert that I made. It is a Martha Stewart idea, but I used a different recipe for the glass. Taylor thought it was really glass and that even if we took the shards out they wouldn't be safe to eat..... pretty convincing!

Is it Halloween yet?

Our Wednesday group had a little Halloween party this week. It was just the usual party until Russ brought in the cupcakes! He is so much fun... Of course I had to spoil the sugar fest and brought in the veggie plate. But as you can tell, it wasn't the most popular dish on the table. I put together a few new Halloween displays, as the cabinet is quite bare this week. The frogs seem to sell faster than I can find them and I needed to fill in the cabinet. The glass box looks cute displaying a few festive things don't you think? We also thought that a couple of the pretty little things pin cushions looked good in here. Check out the finished spider on the fabric Thunderstorm. This fabric is perfect!

Too pretty not to share.....

We framed such a beautiful piece this week, I wanted to show it to you. I know that Lisa was worried about putting on the ribbons and she did a wonderful job. My close up picture just doesn't do it justice. This is "Angel Proclamation" by Mirabilia.

A little bit blurry....

The last newsletter that was released had a wonderful new design by Carolyn pictured. But no, that wasn't your eyes, the picture was horrible. Thought you might like to see what this design really looks like..... This is the "Sisters through time" by Carolyn Standing Webb. It is in stock and the cost is $14.00.

My week of framing....

Framing is wonderful! We love to see your finished work. We frame lots and lots each week, and want to thank you for letting us do this for you. We understand that needlework is not an inexpensive thing to do, and framing adds to the overall cost. We want to keep you stitching, that keeps our shop going, so we offer very reasonable prices in our framing department. Most of the work we do is needlework, and we know the hours (sometimes years) that have been put into your piece. We know needlework and want to make sure that yours is finished beautifully.

Beautiful pictures.....

Lynn sent me some beautiful pictures of her Tulip Box I wanted to share with you. She is a terrific photographer.
