WooOOOOooo! Groaaaan! Rattle, clank…
Eh heh hem… Excuse me, frog in my throat.

It’s October!!! And even though Halloween isn’t until the end of the month, there’s a crisp in the air and a chill in the bones and there’s so much crafty, stitchy, spooky goodness on Etsy and Flickr (where I mostly trolled this week – fee, fi, fo, fum….)! In fact, it was really hard to choose what to show this month. so here are13 wonderfully creepy embroidered (or felted or plush or hooked), pieces for your horrification!

The Cutting (& Stitching Edge) – Aubrey Longley-Cook

And speaking of scary, if you’re in the Los Angeles area, I’m teaching a really haunting class next Saturday… Okay, it’s not haunting, it’s embroidery basics, but if you’re around and you come and mention Mr. X Stitch I’ll try to be extra scary!!! Promise! Info can be found HERE.

Otherwise have a fun and safe Halloween! Don’t take any apples, candy corn, or unwrapped items. Beyond that, have at it!!!
WooooOOOooo!!
