Fall is in the air and in a few days, we will be flipping the calendar and getting ready to take out all of our Halloween decorations.  We have a great Heidi pumpkin ornament on 18 mesh canvas that you can add to your collection.  Use glow in the dark thread for the teeth and eyes to give him that eerie look.   If you are like us you will want to get the adorable crystal pumpkin magnet to go with your canvas. The canvas was $75 and is now $60.

Today we have 2 lovely self-finishing travel jewelry boxes.  These boxes make wonderful gifts for any special occasion.   We have several in stock and additional colors have been ordered.  Stop by the shop and take a peek.

The Hesitation stitch is one of our favorites.  It is one of those stitches that is adaptable to any space that you would like to use it on your canvas.   On the pictures below it was used as the boarder for Sandra Gilmore’s “Sealed With a Kiss”.  You can add a little sparkle by using any metallic thread in the spaces marked in blue or use a thread that is a shade lighter or darker.

Not to much finishing this week.
