How is the summer over already?? HOW??? I feel like we just got out of that horren winter (side note: i heard through the grapevine that the jet stream moved, and we're in for winters like that ALL THE TIME NOW??????? i'm moving to costa rica.), and here we are on the cusp of fall. Le sigh.
I had this post all ready and waiting for a few final touches, and then I got sick. Really sick. Sick like I don't normally get until say, late October or even March. Three weeks of congestion and coughing is not fun, and I don't recommend it. Also, steriod antibiotics and me do NOT get along.
Ugh. Anyway.
So much of what I had written is like, so two weeks ago, so I'll instead give you a snip of what I've been stitching. I have some super-secret-on-the-down-low projects going (I know...again...), so the big reveal of that shiz will be soonish.
Until then, it's all about Halloween/fall stitching.
I went rooting through my stash the other day, and picked out this lovely piece from Plum Street Samplers:
It's called "Halloween Delivery" and is very reminiscent of something out of an E.A. Poe poem...perhaps it's the gigantic raven drawing the carriage....or the little one on the wheel. I can't know. I do know that all that black does get boring, so the pumpkins were a welcome change when I got to stitch in color.
I am kinda obsessed with this carriage for some reason. That purple valence just kinda adds to the creepiness, doesn't it?!
What are you guys working on? Have you done any fall/Halloween stitching or craft projects yet?!
Speaking of which, I need to decorate for fall....
