Tombstone Monkeys

This is my Tombstone Monkeys. This design makes me smile every time I see it. It is the Ink Circles interpretation of the 3 Wise Monkeys, I stitched it on Picture This Plus Mint 32 count linen. The mint is a great color for this design. The photo does not show the fabric color very well because of my flash.

Tombstone Monkeys

A humorous  new tombie from Ink Circles, Tombstone Monkeys is a fantastic adaption of the tradition monkeys who hear, see, and speak no evil. This is a cute warning to those who did!

Quaker Tombie

At last a tombie cross stitch for those who love Quakers. This is from Michelle Ink and is titled Quaker Gone Spooky. I am not a huge Quaker fan, but I do like this one.

Ichabod Seabury

This tombie is another great chart from Primitive Needle.

You'll Love This Gloomy

This wonderful new gloomy from Cherished Stitches is called The Undertaker! I wonder just how soon I can stitch it.

Rotted Not Forgotted tombie

Here is my stitched Rotted Not Forgotted design from the 2012 JCS Hallowe'en magazine. The design is by Plum Street Samplers. It is a very popular design, I've talked to many people who bought the magazine just for this little tombie! 

An Adaptation Tombie

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.

Churchyard tombstones

Here is a tombie that isn't very gloomy.  It will appeal to those who don't even like tombies.  It's called Old Stone Church by Elizabeth's Designs.  I think it's very peaceful looking.

An older tombie

I had completely forgotten about this gloomy tombie until I saw it on eBay the other day.  This chart is apparently still available. The designer is Primitive Needleworks. I like the fish skeleton.

Hannah Picket tombie

This is an older tombie from Sampler Girl called Hannah Picket. I don't really know that much about it. It looks like it would stitch up quickly.

A tombie from Hinzeit

With tombstones like " Lost Interest" and "Started and Forgotten" this is is a great tombie for all of us stitchers.  Even those who don't like most tombies will like this one. It looks like there are some charms included with the chart.

Yet Another Raven

I seem to be attracted to designs with ravens in them lately.

Ashes to ashes, Dust to dust is what this tombie from Carriage House Samplings says. This is not a great picture of Curse of the Raven, but it is a great tombie. 

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.

Just Caught my Eye

I just found this new tombie with a great epitaph called Jonathan Pease from Cardan Antiques and Needlework.

New Tombie Spooky Boo

This is new tombie is Spooky Boo from Silver Creek Samplers.  I love the tombstone that says I Ben Beter.

This new tombie is great!

This design is Mary's Tombstone and it's from Primitive Needleworks by Caryn.
