Happy Halloween!!!

Happy Halloween yinz guys! Had to post this pic of my son in his halloween costume...do you believe this???

It's a little Rocker...my son is actually 6 ft tall.
He and DIL went on a Halloween Cruise on the River last night. She dressed as a student from Harry Potter. Last year they were Adam and Eve....that was funny!
Anyway...like everyone I'm battling the tazmanian poopies...AKA bad head cold. I think I'm on the last leg of it cause at least my nose is not tickling and maybe I can at least get back to stitching. Had to stop for a day due to constant sneezing...UGH!
Anyway, wanted to show you a couple of pics of the Stitch Fest I attended a few weeks ago.






This is like the highlight of our stitching group when our LNS holds this at a local country club. All day stitching and buying goodies with a great lunch and loads of freebies. I even was able to sell some of my ort catchers....tho the money went back into buying stuff.
Oh, well, gonna relax a bit more today and hopefully I'll be back to almost normal tomorrow. Sweetie Man is spoiling me cause I'm sick (I secretly love it!)....so till next time, yinz crazy guys!!!

HAPPY FALL, YINZ GUYS!!!

Some updates...

Fall is here and so is my favorite time of year to sit in the house, watch some football or a favorite TV show and craft. Could be the reason I haven't been blogging as much....cause I've been crafting. Anyway, I finally finished one of the "Just Another Button Teapots". I've done the teacup for February which I posted awhile back. The whole year of Teapots and Cups in this series is definately on my "to do" list. I just love the colors.

Still need to add the buttons to this one. Not sure how I'm going to finish it, but I'll worry about that later.
Next off I was in a swap in the HOE group and received this beautiful needleroll from Holland, along with the little pumpkin candles and leaves and a special treat of the fall cross stitch pattern minis.
The needleroll is fabulous, isn't it?

Next swap was on Swap Bot with Frankenstein Dotees. This cutie is the one I received. Love the stitched face!

This one is the one I sent. The screws on the side of the head are my favorite.
The "boo" buttons of course were not backwards...it's a camera thing!

And last but not least....I crocheted this little blanket for a special little fellow who we will be meeting for the first time this coming weekend...shhhhh...it's a surprise!
I love the hood on these baby blankets.

Well, I got another football game to watch in about a 1/2 hour so I'm off to more stitching! So, till next time, yinz crazy guys.....
