Haloween Freebie

I love Halloween! 
In honor of one of my all time favorite holidays here is a freebie I brewed up.  (insert cackle here)
Enjoy!

And the key....

Halloween/Fall Ornament Exchange

I participated in an exchange in one of my groups for a Fall or Halloween Ornament.

This is the one I sent out.  My partner wasn't particular on which type of ornie she received.

 This is the one I received.  A bunny family riding on a broom!




As you can see I chose Halloween.  I adore All Hallows Eve. 

A flat-fold was made for me.  This was my first ever to get and I think it's really fabulous!

Biscornu Exchange

I participated in an exchange in one of my stitching groups.
This is the Biscornu and goodies sent to me...










The one I sent took 7 weeks to get to my partner and get through customs. 

Pic to follow when I find it....

Rubber Ducky, You're the one! You make Pittsburgh lots of fun!

 That's right folks, the giant Rubber Duck is in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania!

It's an Honor to lend our rivers to this wonderful guest.  He'll have many friends to play with and Pittsburgh has been hit with Duckie Fever. 

So the kids and I went down with some friends to see the Duck.  They had a huge bridge party to welcome him Friday night.  FUN!!!!  The bridge was closed down for a the "block" party and we a local radio station was there for the event.  It was like a big fair with food vendors and art booths not to mention all the ducky stuff to buy.

We plan to go back down once he's anchored for a less crowded look and to get pictures of the girls actually standing close to it.  Today it was just way too busy and crowded to get the touristy photos. Today's main accomplishment was to be there to see him swim into town.  Off to bed for me now.  I'm just plum duckered out. 

We Have a Winner!

And the Winner is......
 

I assigned everyone a number and then used the number generator at http://www.random.org/

Congratulations to Jennifer!

The prize consists of Dimensions Shells chart that I stitched for my Step-mom(found here), remaining floss (should only have to buy a few to be able to complete), a handmade frogging needle, and a few other little surprises that I can find as filler .
Yes, I'll ship overseas.








To enter do ONE of the following:

Dimensions Gold Collection Seashell Treasures Counted Cross Stitch

Finished in July 2013






I finished a Biscornu for an exchange but I can't post pics of that yet.  

I am currently working on a chart that I created for my Hubby.

This is the picture that the chart is created from.













I also signed up for an Autumn/Halloween exchange, so I'll be starting that shortly.
