Cat or Pumpkin? UPDATED

Sue is working on what I think is a Shelly Tribbey witch* and decided to do a darning stitch pumpkin for the background. Lo and Behold--it turned into a cat's heard!

Now that's background magic!

UPDATE: I corrected the link.  This is what happens when you blog too soon after cataract surgery!  LOL

*Nope, this is Deborah Wilson /Beau Jeste's Spread Eagle Witch.  Sue checked.  Thanks!

Feathers and Flowers -- Steph Takes a Class with Laura Taylor

Stephanie has been quite busy taking classes from Laura Taylor at Needle Works in Austin.

The shop offered Melissa Shirley's Halloween Basket as a class one day and canvas embellishment class the second.  Looks like Steph took both classes.  The Indian Brave is from Painted Pony's Southwestern Indian Nativity set.
