Stitching in the Middle of Living

Today's Thought for the Day is from Julie, who clearly leads the sort of life I lead--full of constant interruptions.

The Bride UPDATED

...The Bride of Frankenstein, that is!  Here is what Suzanne has done with one of her Monster's Ball canvases.  This is an older club from Pocket Full of Stitches.  The second link shows the entire set.  This is from Janet Burnett/A Collection of Designs.  Very very cute!

Suzanne is stitching the club this year and will update her blog with photos of each as she finishes them.  She's already added It to the collection, which makes me smile broadly.  Actually, I don't know which one I like best.  They are all cuter than monsters have a right to be.

By the way, if you are a fan of larger Halloween pieces, Enriched Stitch is planning classes for Melissa Shirley's new Four Witches.  Here is the first one, skulls and all.
