It's done in DMC (310,4140, 4045, 3746,4124,451,3045,317, and 4000) on a piece of Miek's hand-dyed fabric. Love those color variations. 4000 is one of the newest colors and it made a great tree trunk. I finished it up as a pin keep this afternoon.
Couple of pieces of good news to report:
First, the lost LHN "Needles and Threads" square for WOCS finally arrived! It took one month to get from DC to Florida. Those squares usually take 3 days to make that trip. I could have walked to Florida in that time I think. Hope the square had a nice world tour. I'm so glad it didn't get lost forever!
Second, my partner and I won our summer tote bag in Jazzercise by attending the required number of classes during the summer. The promo below shows the bag. Our instructor was nice enough to give us some extra time to get all of our classes in. I always think I don't care about these promotions and it's not why I go to class, but these incentives don't hurt!

Yay! for the square arrival!
Yay! for winning the bag!
And Yay! for the cute pinkeep!
Love the color variations in it. The plants (of which I don't know the English name) look fabulous! And what would it be without a bird!! It's such a whimsical, charming scene. I can't even imagine how it would look in only one color.
The Halloween stitch is wonderful! So beautiful and unusual! Nice bag that you won! That is so cool! Good for you for meeting the goal and earning it!
Hooray! So glad the square FINALLY arrived. Good for you earning that bag. :)
Love your finish. That's such a cute design. Have a great week!
Ohhh such a sweet Halloween design Annie, it matched so good with Miek's fabric ;-)

That bag is really gorgeous.
Such a cute finish, Annie! Another FB group I'll have to check out :) I like the fact that the ghosts don't look spooky... And you did a great job of choosing colors...
Love that bag--you well deserve it! You're so good about keeping up with your Jazzercise classes year after year :)
Oh, the dentist--now that's someone I don't want to visit again any time soon after my experience earlier this month which ended in an emergency root canal :( Good luck on your visit!
Haunting love looks great!
I'm so pleased your square turned up. Sometimes it would be lovely to know where these things go, if only they could talk
You're a lucky girl. The lost square re-emerged from its trip around the world, you won a great bag, and you finished a lovely Halloween pinkeep with two little mice so much in love. Enjoy everything!

Annie, I almost missed this post, sorry! I do love your little Halloween piece, it's beautiful and the tiny mouse couple are so cute! I love the Color Variations, too, and use them all the time, I like the way you have put them to use here.
Glad that the square finally made its way to where it was supposed to go!
