Description

This idea came to me and I couldn't wait to get to work designing it. To date, this is my most favorite thing I've ever designed! It turned out so similarly to what I envisioned in my head, and that's not always the case. In mid July, as I was heading into Expo prep I felt like my collection just wasn't “complete”. It was a gut feeling I had that something was missing , and then this idea came to mind. With the clock ticking I wondered if it could actually by done in time, and I decided to go for it! I power stitched this mega piece in 10 days. 18,958 stitches in 10 days is A LOT of stitching, but I did it, and I AM SO GLAD I did! This piece uses both cross stitches and straight stiches to achieve this spooky fall look. It could easily be broken up into smaller sections if you prefer something more manageable.
