We love when we are able to share a sweet little stitchery with our blog readers. Today, designer Terry Loewen has delivered a Halloween sampler in time for you to stitch and display for fun seasonal decorating. Although the stitches are small, with the limited color changes, you will finish this piece in no time.
Follow Terry on her blog for a peek into her creative life, and additional creative inspiration.

Hi Joan, the key and date are part of the designer’s interpretation of witch trial history.
