More Halloween

All of the heads I created a while back
 are still waiting,
 poor neglected things.  
Halloween projects have overcome me,
 and I can't keep up with the ideas. 

Little fabric bats (sewn and stuffed 

and treated with fabric stiffener) 

and needle felted ghosts  were added

 to this burlap wreath from last year.

I haven't needle felted in quite a while,

and my poor pricked fingers remind me of why.

In addition to the ghosts,

I couldn't resist trying a little black cat,

who found

a sunny spot to rest.

The above ghost will have another home

with a sedate little witch....

eventually.

The cat below is in progress right now.

He likes the sunny window spot, too.
The cat and the baby crow from 
yesterday, are definitely inspired by 
Joanna Parker's work...
which I can't afford.  
At least not her originals .

 I love Halloween and always have. 

 In fact, I wanted to get married on Halloween,

 but because we needed to make use of the entire weekend for our lengthy and expensive (Ha!) honeymoon 

before getting back to work on Monday, 

we got married on Oct. 29th.  Long, long ago.

We have plans to go up into the Ozarks 
this year for our anniversary.  
Hot Springs, Eureka Springs, and 
wherever else from there.  
Just in time for the peak foliage, we hope.

I'm SO looking forward to this anniversary trip.

One of my funniest memories of Halloween,

is the year our granddaughter Mila

wanted to trick-or-treat

as a bottle of vinegar.

I think she was four at the time;

she ended up as a pink puppy

 with black spots

in a costume her mother made for her.

Mila is still a vinegary little girl.  :)

A little coreopsis enjoys the morning light.

How is Halloween going at your house?
