This is a blog for all the wonderful dark, gloomy, slightly macabre cross stitch designs that are out there. Although most of the designs would make great Hallowe'en pieces, this is not a blog for those patterns that are only about Hallowe'en. Please let us know if you have a design you would like to see on this blog. Please share your finishes with us also.
I saw this great ornament in the 2012 JCS Halloween ornament that I saw could be easily adapted to a great tombie. I'm not entirely happy with the angel on the tombstone, I may rework it. I stitched this with HDF Begrimed silk floss and I love the way that it looks.
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.
