Halloween Hanging

14 ct, stitched over 1

Make a spellbinding sampler in no time at all with just a few thread shades and a wave of your needle! Thanks to the Historical Sampler Company, we're bringing you the perfect recipe for a bewitching Halloween hanging. Simply take one cleverly designed chart, mix in a handful of stranded cottons, add a length of natural aida, and finally, an eye of newt. Ok, so we might have made the eye of newt part up, but apart from that, it really is that simple and enjoyable! Worked in a rustic, home-spun style, this mini sampler is packed full of details that are great fun to stitch. And, as you'll use whole cross stitches only throughout, you're sure to whizz through it in no time at all. Dotted with a scary spider at each corner, this project features all the accessories a good witch needs, including stripy stockings, a cauldron, pointy hat and, of course, a mischievous black cat. A fun way to welcome trick-or-treaters to your home, just remember to have a bumper bucket of sweets by the door, as you'll entice guests galore with this stitched sign!
