"WiCkEd" Blog Hop! It's My Day!

Welcome to my blog on this final day of the Wicked Blog Hop!
 
Thanks to Wendy, our Cheerleader, and Madame Samm!
 
Please be sure to visit the other blogs today:
 
 Thursday, October 31st
 
Well...my mother always said,
"The road to hell is paved with good intentions."
 
Definitely my mantra for this swap!  :{
 
I started out with plans to make
 this cute little cross stitch
into a cute little pillow
 using this cute little fabric...
 
 
...well, that didn't happen!
 
Then I found this darling little Halloween panel
and was going to make it into a darling little quilt...

 
...using these darling little fabrics...

 
...well, that didn't happen either!
 
Oh, my! - There's those good intentions!
 
So instead I decided to share with you
an oh-so-cute little Halloween book I made.
 
 
This is the completed book closed (above)
and these are the cover and pages (below) ---


 



 
Happy Haunting!
Wishing you all a Wicked Halloween!
denise  :D
