Halloween fob!!

Haven't done much stitching since sunday, i thought today since it's been raining and windy i need a very quick finish!!

Halloween fob
Cross Stitch Crazy magazine
Lucie Heaton
14ct white aida, Dmc, beads




This magazine came in last week or was it beginning of this week i am not sure anymore but it's on the pile with other magazines that came in the last days, which most unread yet! Oh well, when i turn over the pages and saw the halloween motives, that got me an idea to make a quick scissor fob for the monthly challenge for this month.
Vicky asked how did i add the beads around it so i thought to add a couple of pictures and do hope it will give an idea how i've worked on with the beads. I am sorry but i am not that good in explaining, i mean my English isn't good enough for it.



I see the pictures aren't that good, i think the battery need to be recharge.




Thank you all for your kind comments with my previous posts about the ornament, WIP and about my work. Your visits and comments mean so much.

What a cute Halloween ornament! Nicely done and your pics showing how you put beads around the edges show how easy it is to do this.

It is amazing how much use you can get out of the magazines. I am glad I have kept all mine. Need to go browse them I think. xx
