Lest you think I’m lazy, here are some of the projects I’ve been working on.
Dancing Skeletons
I made some fun pillowcases for our bed (no room in my house is safe from Halloween). My husband chose this dancing skeleton fabric—he is such a good sport. The two felt pillows are some I recently bought on sale from the Smithsonian Store.
Black Hat Society
This is “Black Hatter” by Sue Hillis Designs. I wanted to make this just because it’s fun. The chart came with a cute little candy corn button which I did not use. This chart (including the button) is on sale right now at this link.
Light Your Way
I love this one. It’s “Light Your Way” from a little booklet of projects entitled “Trix or Treat” by Blackbird Designs. Using only one color floss makes a neat effect, one of the reasons I also enjoy redwork. You can find it here.
Feeling Stitchy has some Halloween fun stitchery going on. Also, this past Saturday, she posted a great card stitching tutorial.

"Lest you think I'm lazy"... June, no one would ever think that! I love the dancing skeletons too!
lJunie,
I just love your Halloween things! Halloween just happens to be a favorite holiday at my house too. One year the kids begged me to make a fabric skeleton to hang up. I bought the fabric cut-out at Walmart and we hang it up every year. I made a scarecrow like this too....individual pieces for jointed arms, legs, head, etc. So fun!
I love the "Light your Way" stitchery too.

They are all wonderful projects June. I especially like the Blackbird design. I love their patterns. Their quilt designs are always so pretty and I love the overdyed floss that they use in their more colorful projects.
Thank you for the wonderful links.
Your craftiness really knows no bounds! This post really has me in the mood for Halloween :)
Lazy? You almost make me feel lazy! Great projects.
Wonderful! I love all your Halloween Stitchery! :)
those are adorable! I really can't wait for halloween to come
Good grief! If that's lazy, I'd hate to see busy!
I think Light Your Way is just fab. I could definitely see myself stitching it up!
Thank you for your sweet comment ;)...love you Halloween stitchery!
Cute stitchery! Cute everything!!! Your swap partner will be thrilled!
Fabulous stitchery! I love Blackbird Designs.......and I would never think you lazy :)
I love those pillows and your stitchery. Very festive.
Hi June, thank you for stopping by my blog ~ I love yours! Great projects and finishes here. :) If you will email me (rachelvendsel at yahoo dot com) I will send you some links to tutorials for the flat fold. It is a very simple finishing technique which is especially nice for seasonal things.
Haven't you been a busy girl.
Love those cushions and you made me laugh when you said no room in the house is safe. I believe it now. I just can't fathom how much Halloween is a big deal over there or is it just in your house?
No I've seen so many other blogs the same.
Good on your for celebrating so hard.
Look out Thanks Giving and Christmas.
I love the pillows! They look amazing! And these stitchery posters! I believe you could easily feel the Halloween spirit there! I think you did a great job there! This Halloween we decorated beads of an Amber necklace as small pumpkins. And put them everywhere around the house. Our kids had to find them, therefore they would get presents. I have to say - it was really interesting and we had a lot of fun!
