Very,very nice! A lot of time went into that. Thank you for sharing.

I love it!!! You did a great job!!!

Love your greenwork. Beautiful stitches.

Oh dear... How cute! I love this design very much.

There is another design I like too at yesterday's designs and have wanted the Halloween jolly pattern for a while. It used to offered at clotilde but they went out of business. (Well, they sold out to annies) They don't have the pattern though. I finally found it again at craftsy so I think tomorrow I will order it.

Oh cute! Love the subject!

But it made it too busy & it took focus away from the embroidery. So I decided on a solid border. In the border, I quilted FMQ the names of quilting friends in another forum I belong to. I matched the thread so well to the green that you can't notice the names.

You can see the patterns at this site. http://www.quiltingbeedesigns.com/index.html
Be careful - there's some great patterns here!

I just love it because it does bring back memories of my maternal grandmother quilting just like that in the kitchen, she hung her frames from the ceiling from small ropes above the table, I do miss her quite a bit she died when I was only 14 and I am now 51. She was a special lady in my life.

That is just darling.
