I surprised myself by finishing the stitching of Boo by Hello from Liz Matthews from Punch Needle and Primitive Stitcher magazine yesterday. I used the called for overdyed thread and it was stitched on 32 count linen by Weeks Dye Works. Annoyingly the tag doesn't mention the colour unless the colour is linen!!
It was very hot yesterday, so I decided to fully finish the piece onto a pumpkin piece that I had painted for something else. I was so keen that I didn't even take a photograph first. I am planning on making some 3D bats on my embroidery machine to add to the edge and stalk. That will have to wait until after my trip to The Festival of Quilts.
