Hocus Pocus

I am almost through the letters!

Ten

Today, I am at 10 inches of the 37.5 inches needed to go around the tray.

Great progress

I am happy with the background progress on Hocus Pocus today.

8 inches

The belt is now at 8 inches and two completed motifs.

This one works

I chose open Tstitch and this one is going to be a great background

Another WIP

I don't like the wine glasses on Hocus Pocus so I stitched on the Holly Belt today. 6 inches of background and one motif are done.

Started again

I have started Hocus Pocus again. I am going to do the wine glass pattern in Silk Lame Braid Petite glow in the dark. The background is going to take several days.

She is done

The shadow stitching is done and this one goes in the finishing pile.

The brim

I finished the orange and then the black and white to complete the brim. I just have a little bit of shadow stitching left to finish on this one.

Just blacks today

I started shadow stitching around the design and then did the black squares on the orange hat band.

The Witch

I stitched the witch today in Soie Tresse. And, started the shadow stitching.

A second hat

This is also by Heidi and goes with the other one. I stitched the gray in the hat with Silk Lame Braid and accented the black dots with Soie Tresse.

Finished

Shadow stitching is done. This one goes in the Finishing pile. #25 for stitched pieces this year.

A brim

I finished the hat brim all in Fyre Werks....all that is left is the rest of the shadow stitching.

A Spider

I did the spider in Fuzzy stuff and added a bow with Fyre Werks and then some white beads. I also added more rows of shadow stitching down the sides.

Something new

I don't usually have more than one project at a time but I have made an exception since stitching and showing inch by inch of basketweave is boring. This is Witch Hat 373 by Heidi. The background is white skip skip tent and I stitched the web in place and the orange spider string and have started the shadow stitching rows for finishing.

some of the first holly

I got some of the first Holly and more background done today.

Progress

I made it to the first set of Holly today and will stitch that with the Silk Lame Braid in greens while continuing the background with the Pepper Pot.

Holly Belt

While I wait for thread for Hocus Pocus I started the Holly Belt, B44, from Julia and purchased from The needlepoint Clubhouse.

Finishing!

Santa with tree is finished! It is a standup and I love the Santa faces on one of the bows!
