Halloween Stitch-a-long 2024 now complete

Mystical bookshelves were the theme for this year's spooky season stitch-a-long. This one is packed with lots of details to amuse and entertain you as you stitch!

The design features a black lace-like border, some bedtime reading, a little intruder and bottles of potions, a mini 'home sweet home' sampler, a sheet ghost (of course, as they are my favourite spooky companion), a crystal ball, some poison ivy in a little cauldron pot, a crow that may be stealing or delivering a key....and plenty more!

As with all my Halloween stitch-a-longs, there are lots of elements that can be used on their own, as mini stitches, perhaps to frame up as little decorations, or as special gifts for any Halloween loving friends or family.

There are 2 fractional stitches included in this design (for the mouse's nose!) I give guidance in the chart. You have nothing to fear!
