The First

Happy October to you all!

This is a busy month for me, with birthdays and pumpkin parties and the witching hour. I love it!

I put the Halloween decorations out today, and this is one of my little treasures. It's a little wooden pumpkin with a gang of wooden dolls, similar to what you find in the heart of a Matryoshka.


I hope to share more treasures with you this month, as well as some Halloween and birthday related crafts that I'll be busy making.

In case you haven't noticed already from Flickr or from other embroidery blogs, there are a lot of really wonderful (and free!) Halloween embroidery patterns available for your enjoyment.

First up is Annie Oakleaves' adorable Ghosties pattern.

Get it here!

Annie Oakleaves strikes again with this adorable little witchy poo.

Get it here!

Be sure to stop by Annie's Etsy shop for more embroidery patterns.

I'll leave you with those two Halloween freebies for now. They're both in my to do pile, and I really hope to start them soon!
