Oct. giveaway, halloween ornament!

Halloween ornament
freebie by...??
32ct linen and DMC threads

I am sorry i can't find who is the designer of this one as i printed it

a while back. Hope somebody know and i really appreciate to hear who the designer is.
Everyone is welcome

for the draw, but please indicate if you want to be added for the draw and if possible to leave your e-mail address so i know where to contact you. It will be open until thursday, 15th October as i would like to send it out the following day because we are going away for a long weekend with the children this time.

Hubby had missed Max a couple of times when he was here while dh at sea so we've asked the owner if we can borrow him for a few days and picked him up last sunday but had to bring it back wednesday evening as we get another dog to take care of.


This is Buks from one of our friends. He was dropped today as our friends are going to Turkey for vacation. They are flying mid-morning tomorrow so they left the island early this evening and going to stay at a hotel nearby the airport for the night.


I know we should control eating much as we've gain a few pounds the last days but we have quite some apples brought by my brother-in-law last month, from their apple tree, though we've used lots last weekend for Grace birthday still lots are over. Since everyone loves "appelflap"(apple fritter), i've made some yesterday.
Just made this apple tart early this evening as i promised a firend to take one for her birthday which she'll celebrate tomorrow together with their daughter. Also prepared a beef curry but haven't taken a picture of it as it's still not done. Our friend(living at the mainland) is nearly six months pregnant and quite weak so the doctor's advice not to work much.
Again, another busy weekend ahead of us! Hope you all have a great weekend.

The ornament is really very pretty. But no, I don't know who the designer is as I haven't seen it before. I also have a couple of freebies printed out and forgot to write down the designer's name.
Oh my, I love the sight of your apple tart and fritters - and I'd love to try them ...

Mylene,
Halloween ornament is so nicely stitched and finished. I would love to win it but I'd better leave more chance for those stitchers who have kids - it will be more fun for them to win.
The apple tart looks so delicious, mmmmmm....
