I was honored when Just Cross Stitch asked me to design an ornament for their Halloween ornament issue this year. Since it's now published, I can show you the close-ups!
Here is Halloween Greetings…
Sophie designed the gate, and I included a pineapple bc it's a symbol for hospitality – and bc my mom likes them. 🙂
I hope you like it… and I hope you like my ornament for the Christmas issue too! 🙂 I believe that one comes out in September.
Happy Halloween!

Well done Sophie, looks like there are quite a few Xstitch designers in the Stewart household.
It looks a fun design.

That is a cute ornament! Definitely my favourite from the Hallowe’en issue And if yours is the ornament in the middle of the front page of the Christmas issue (Love and Joy come to you): http://tkeyt1028.fatcow.com/store/product3790.html then I already blogged last week to say it was a must stitch for me!
