Gloomy Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas to all my Tombies and Gloomies friends. This design from Prairie Moon is appropriately called Merry Christmas.  I really like that the dog has a Santa hat too.

Miss Mary Mack

This is my rendition of Miss Mary Mack from La D Da Designs. I changed it so you can see the silver buttons down her back and I made her a blond.  I used HDF silks for this design. I loved stitching this, it was so much fun. I used a piece of linen that I had on hand,  that's why it's a little small.

Spooky House

This is a great pattern for this time of year. It makes me think of leaves blowing in the wind. It's called Spooky House and it's from Xs and Ohs. I love the tree and the bats.

Beasties

This is Beasties by Courtney Collection.  I think it qualifies as a gloomy. What do you think about this design?

Great older pattern

This is a wonderful smaller pattern from Carriage House Samplings called Tiny Tombstones.  It's one of the first tombie designs that I ever saw and one of the ones that got me hooked on tombies.

Salem Sister

Salem Sisters by Plum Street Samplers is a very popular chart. I love the colors in this design.

Blackbird Parade

This is the pattern I am currently working on. It's Blackbirds on Parade from Heart in Hand. It's on the lighter side for a  Gloomy.

I'm in love with this new design from La-D-Da called The Raven.  I'm going to have to stitch it very soon.
