Boo to You (SJ Designs) UPDATED

Susan Johnson of SJ Designs posted a free Halloween ornament for stitchers to create on her website.  It's called the "Boo to You" ornament and looks to be a fun and fast stash buster to stitch on Halloween.  It's meant to be totally beaded but there is no reason you can't pull colors of threads from your stash and follow the chart in tent stitches.

UPDATE:  Susan has reposted last year's "Very Very Merry" chart, just in case folks missed it.

Eyeballs

Was it Shakespeare's three witches who talked about "eye of newt and toe of frog?"  Do you think he was thinking about the Zecca retreat at Bedecked and Beadazzled?
