Tis "'wickedly" Good!

Yes, it "Tis Wickedly Good" and it is Friday and my day to show you what "Wicked" things I made.  I was sooo happy when Madame Samm had posted to sign up for this Hop.  I couldn't wait!  Not only to make something "Frightful" but to see all the other projects that were stirred up.   So let me give a BIG thank you to both Madame Samm and to Wendy  for hosting this great hop.  I can imagined that it is a lot of work.  And we all do appreciate it.



Oh, I had so many ideas for this hop.....Then all of a sudden I got bombarded with a lot of other things that had to take priority.  UGH!!  
 
Then I decided to do a silhouette wall hanging.   So I drew this:   (ended up making 2.)




I was starting to get carried away with my pumpkins and it didn't look right to me to have a dog standing on them.  Then again, some say that it is not a dog but another cat??  Spooky, huh??


 


Now my son said that my phone will take better pictures than my camera.  I can read that there are more Pixels and with my camera I sometimes have a hard time keeping them clear.  I guess I shake the camera too much.  He said that phone will always take clear pictures for me.   Well, I somehow can still get blurry pictures.  He just laughs.

Then these came to mind.  Gee, I got Christmas, and colors to match my decor, so why not "Halloween"?





I got all sizes:  9 1/2 inch round,  6 inch round, and 4 inch round.




T'was the week before All Hallows Eve
My nose was so stuffy that I couldn't breathe.
The beasties and ghoulies all were creeping,
(It was late at night, I should've been sleeping).
I heard their sighs, I heard their moans,
Their rattling chains and creaking bones;
But I didn't get scared, didn't wish them away
'Cuz I like to hear ghoulies and beasties at play.
These creatures, you see, were very polite
Each time that I sneezed they'd say "Gesundheit"


With Cider in hand, I am ready to Fly over to these other "Wickedly" great project...come join me...

And here is next weeks schedule:

       October 28th

Now for my "Treat".   I purchased this cute Halloween fabric and did not get a chance to use it.   I know someone will have a lot of fun with it.   It is 1 yard, not cut, not washed.




To enter is easy.  Just leave me a comment.  I will run my giveaway through the hop and post a winner on November 1st.  It is open to ANYONE! Just make sure I can contact you.  I will go to the random.org to pick my winner.  

Oh, and don't forget the giveaway for the EQ 7 will end on the 28th.  To enter please see my post below.

  45. I was impressed with the silhouettes, but then saw the crocheted doiles and thought about all the ideas you came up with and how great they were. I would never have thought of Halloween doiles. I love Halloween and the fabric would be used in more wallhangings or table runners, etc.
