Trick or Treat

This was the decoration we saw in a pub about a week ago. The green witch moves and makes a noise activated by sound. My young Grandson wasn't impressed.

Beamish Museum getting ready for Halloween nights.

I think this one will look quite spooky on a dark night, its in a small wood.

Happy Paint Party Friday

I finished the embroidery on this cushion a long time ago and then it got left on a pile of to do's. I decided yesterday that I must finish some of the pile and at long last I have finished it, the cushion that is, not the pile!

I used squares of different textures and shades of brown/beige/cream. Likewise with the threads. The background fabric is velvet, reused from a pair of curtains.

It's not the best cushion I've ever made but at least I have finished it.

Inktober and Glass Bauble Vase

Inktober Day 5, the prompt today is chicken

I bought this little glass bauble vase a couple of years ago but have only just got round to doing something with it. The little house was 3D printed and then painted, the detail doesn't show up very well in the photos. For the base I embroidered on felt using mainly French knots, running stitch and beads.
