Hello dear blogging friends. I did it!
I'm finally finished with my Halloween WIP!
Though I did a lot of frogging (I was already croaking) on the words, I'm still good with how it turned out. I did them in backstitch because the letters were too small. The frogging came after I found the line neither fit nor was centered, so I had to graph each line on paper first.
This is how it turned out:
There's that frog on the left visiting me, haha.
Aside from the letters, I also modified some space. There should have been "two" tombstones (one between the houses and another at the end of the branch), but I just don't like seeing tombstones with my witches - it would be like a gruesome interpretation of Hansel and Gretel, lol.
Good news, I have just the frame that would fit. I bought it at Homegoods for the discounted price of $6. More good news, I bought fabric squares at Joann during their Columbus weekend doorbusters, a dollar each instead of $2.50. I'm excited at how this will turn out:)
I'll show it to you next post, it's getting late.
Thanks for visiting. Happy Stitching!
