Happy Halloween!

I hope everyone is prepared. Tonight is the night when all the little ghosts and goblins come out begging for candy. Of course, if you are like me, you only have about 6 or 7 kids show up. Luckily, I do not have to go out tonight. I can stay home and watch spooky movies with my hubby. Well, he may actually watch. I'm going to listen while I stitch. 

Here are some new designs that will be arriving in the shop soon.

From Glendon Place
Three great Christmas designs. I can't decide which I like best: "Flowers of the Holy Night" or "I'll Be Home fro Christmas".  Looks like both designs will be going into the stash.

Alfred is so cute but I think his name should be changed to Pinocchio.

Busy...Busy...Busy


Image result for clip art autumn

You can tell that the holidays are on the way and not just because the stores already have Christmas on display. With only 2 months (and 1 day) till Christmas, things are bound to get even busier. Here at The Stitch & Frame Shop, we are busy little bees (especially in framing) but we wouldn't have it any other way.

Apparently, the designers have also been busy. There are a lot of new designs on the way...take a look but be warned...due to the volume of new designs, this blog post is a little longer than usual (but that's a good thing...right?).


COMING SOON

From Threadwork Primitives
A lovely autumn pillow. I love the colors.

Bountiful Blessings


From La-D-Da
Great house.

I wonder if the pilgrim in "Turkey Bay" is looking for turkeys or is he possibly looking for mermaids in "Siren Cove". My bet is the mermaids.

I like the stocking ornament and since it is ornament #1, that means there could be more. Can't wait to see what other stockings will be in this series.
