Design Catalog: "Halloween Night" ©2002

Includes Color Key, Instructions to finish as pictured, Stitch Diagram for Spider's Web and an easy-to-read chart.

A reminder of childhood - two children trick-or-treating on Halloween - one in a traditional witches costume carrying a pumpkin pail to gather the treats received. And, the other in an Indian costume with a matching bag for holding treats. There is a funny 'Halloween kitty' on the fence and a detailed tree complete with spider's web and spider. The sky is full of beaded stars and a sparkly moon. Mill Hill Bat Treasures flit around the moon.

Remember when you were a child, what was creepier than those gnarled fingers on a tree! Or, bats in the sky, eeek! And, spiders, yuck! This is such a fun design to stitch.
