My first finish of 2014 - this is for a halloween exchange

 This is my first finish of 2014.  This is

for a halloween exchange.  This piece has

a very long trip to make.  The pattern was in

the Just Cross stitch 2011 halloween issue.

How cute is frankenstein.  I had to take him

out and put him in the picture.  I purchased

him in Binghamton, NY years ago.  I was

visiting my older sister and he was 

purchased in one of the shops.  I look

forward to displaying him each year.  I

am not a huge halloween person but he

is something i look forward to seeing each

year in the house.

I went to anthropoligie today and

what a deal.  They had these marked 

down but then they gave an extra 50%

off.  I wanted to purchase the ceramic

fruit basket for a long time but i

wasnt going to pay full price.   Orig.

20.00 i only paid 7.00.  The colorful

bowl was only 3.00.  Dont you just

love a deal. Here is the best part of
my day.  I was told about a stitching
group that meets at panera each 
saturday.  I went today and met a
bunch of great women.  They 
made me feel welcome.  I look 
forward to getting to know them.
Aren't stitchers just the nicest
people?  First goal of the year
met.
