Work out what the mystery phrase is and hop back to Jo's blog to give her your answer. While there take some time to watch the slideshow of Jo's Spooky Scrapbook stitching.
Great finishes for those lovely Halloween stitchings. Merci pour la lettre L. Joyeuses Fêtes ! Amicalement. XXX
ReplyDeleteLovely stitching and finishing!
ReplyDeleteHappy Halloween!
Two great finishes! Scream is very colourful, and I love the way you’ve finished it! I have a few cross stitch pieces that need FFO’ing, it’s nice to get different ideas like this, as I’m nervous that I might spoil things at the finish stage!
ReplyDeleteSuch a pretty scissor fob too!
I’ve enjoyed visiting today!
Happy Halloween!
Hugs,

ReplyDeleteBoth are great finishes, I love the ghost trio and the owls are perfect for the fall.
