I placed a wish for a Christmas Ornament. I just love handmade ornaments on the tree, but I really only have a very small handful of them. The lovely Marie quickly volunteered to fulfill my wish, and today I received this gorgeous ornament. Marie more than fulfilled my wish! She stitched me M Designs' Peace Tree Ornament in a pretty red and green variegated floss, over one, and so perfectly finished. Thank you so much Marie!
And, Terry received my wish fulfillment today too :-) Terry had made a wish for a scissor pocket of any kind. I was eager to scoop that wish right up. She let me know that she liked purple, as well as a couple of other colors... and I stitched her this:
Here it is! The end of my portion of my Halloween Round Robin - or as I call it, My Haunted Neighborhood Round Robin. I really like the striped effect of the pumpkins on the tree. They are stitched using Needle Necessities in Copper Pennies (147), and I like this color quite a lot. Tomorrow I will write up my introduction and instruction letter... and mail it out on Saturday, on time :-)
Stitched on today: Started a gift, and finished my Halloween Round Robin

Beautiful exchanges on both sides! The chrissy tree looks great in red and gold, and I love the little Dinky Dyes scissor pocket. That design's been on my wishlist for ages.
I hope your RR piece travels speedily and safely.
Marie did a gorgeous job with that ornament! It's not easy to stitch, either, as I got hung up with mine a while back and now it's a UFO. And your rendition of the Red Desert Scissor Pocket is just gorgeous! I also like your start to your Halloween neighborhood. Very cute!
