Round Robin, Exchanges and Chat...

This is my stitching on Jane's round robin. Her theme is Halloween, Autumn. I am really happy with how it turned out. I used Shepherd's Bush Happy Haunting, Brightneedle's Ghoulies and Ghosties and a tree from Rosewood Manor's A Forest Grew.

I received the most gorgeous bellpull from Myrna for the USEBB For the Birds exchange. I just love it! She also sent along some other bits and pieces, thread, beads, birdie post-its and linen.

Finally I received this PIF from Heather. It's so cute and I love pumpkins :-). She also sent an adorable Mill Hill kit with it.

I feel badly it took me so long to post the exchange and PIF pictures. Getting my wisdom teeth out wasn't fun and has put me a bit behind the past couple weeks. We are getting ready to take another trip, we leave tomorrow morning for Virginia. My DH has to go there on business and since my FIL and his wife live there I decided to tag along :-). It should be a fun week, we are going to try and go to Busch Gardens in Williamsburg and I will get to visit Dying to Stitch. I love getting to see the ocean too. We lived there for several years and it's so beautiful. Thank you so much for taking the time to read and comment on my blog. Hope everyone has a great weekend!

Oh, Katrina, I absolutely love your Halloween house and all! It's just an adorable composition for the Neighborhood. Sorry about those wisdom teeth...that couldn't have been any fun at all! Enjoy Williamsburg, though. And, tell us all about it when you come home!
Hugs,
