Halloween update 👻

Just a quick update on my Halloween Sampler.

 Maximus thought he would help me out with my floss. I've been using two hands so now he doesn't have to "help" so much.
As of tonight, working on Pumpkin! 
Feeling silly...
Look Nathan, it's a fat cardinal!
Um, that's not a bird. I knew that.

    Did Nathan laugh? Or just think mom was being silly! My son would have thought the later. That is one beautiful flower!

    Lol, I was looking forward to admiring the cardinal! (We don't have those in my part of the world).
    Great work on the Halloween piece.

    I wanted to see the fat cardinal too!
    Your Halloween sampler is gorgeous. In love the spooky writing. Maximus is so handsome but he looks peeved at missing out on stitching fun!

    Great progress on the Halloween sampler, the fabric is perfect! Cardinals are gorgeous but flowers stick around a little longer.

    Ha ha a fat cardinal, a flower; I guess it's nature either way!

    The Halloween Sampler is looking great, especially with Maximus' help.

    Great work on the Hallowe'en Sampler. I have one on reserve from Patchwork Rabbit when she gets the stock in. Don't think it comes with a free cat though!

    When I first saw cardinals, I thought they were invented for artistic licence, I couldn't believe a bird could be that red!

    Hah, that's a very still fat cardinal!

    Maximus is lovely even if "helping" wasn't involved. Temperature doesn't seem to bother them at all, does it.

    Nice progress on the Halloween piece, Astrid. And always nice to see pictures of cardinals, of one cardinal in this case, lol. Like Mii said, we don't have cardinals here in Europe.
