While I was packing up my finishes to send to WOCS, I remembered a little tea wallet I knitted some time ago, so I sent that too. Nobody needs a special pouch to hold their teabags, but the pattern was too cute to pass up. The free pattern is right here.
Next I finished a classic Mary Garry Halloween design. I think I'll send it to a friend who has a brand new grand-daughter. First Halloween ornmanent! I was trying to do a crocheted border in black, but my eyes said no way. So I substituted star sequins with beads and a running stitch. This is on 36 count linen.
I needed (needed?) and extra Halloween card, so this little Prairie Schooler witch filled the bill for a quick stitch. I had planned to get more elaborate in the finishing, but I always seem to run out of steam for that when it comes time to actually do it.
Inside, I have the cutest vintage printable. You can download it here.
And cold weather holidays will be here before we know it. So when I happened to stumble on this Shepherd's Bush Warm Heart little Miss Snowlady, I just had to stitch it in anticipation. She's just perfect for a neutral holiday card. Oddly, she's wearing the colors of the Washington football team. I guess that influenced me to stitch her as well. The photo got cropped on the right. For once, I did manage to get the circle centered in real life.

My favorite is the little Mary Garry witch--I've always wanted to stitch her myself. She is so adorable and doesn't look like a scary witch. I always loved dressing up like a witch or an old hag on Halloween :)
Love the card and the Redskins snowman. I'm amazed at how much you've stitched since your last post! Are you up all night?
It is such a pleasure to see the pictures of your finishes Annie. All different items in color and work.
Love your teabag pouch in the sweet colors :-)))

Oh, Annie, we all know need has nothing to do with it. It's a cute tea wallet, so surely somebody needs it. ;)
The Mary Garry witch is on my "someday" list. I love the improvised border. Sometimes the eyes know best.
Your Warm Heart card is SO cute!
Haven't you been so busy!! And who doesn't 'need' another halloween card? The little snowman is adorable, I haven't seen that one before, so cute...
Lovely stitching! that little ornament is just too cute!
You always have the best finishes. I just love the sweet little face on the little girl and the flowers growing on the snowlady. The star sequins with a little bead is a neat trick too. I'll have to look for those next time I am at Joann's!
These are all so nice, Annie! I especially love the little tea bag holder and the gorgeous little Snow Lady!
This makes my heart sing , your stitching is a delight.
that little girl is a cutie! :)
