Calvin's Mice!

 Happy Sunday!
Calvin was so mad I was stitching mice I had to do something so he doesn't kill me in my sleep :) Just kidding ..

 ***Please remember if you copy my finishing ideas that you be considerate and give a link to my blog or facebook page..****
 any way I finished stitching these cute mice yesterday and I had one last Halloween piece I had bought at Walmart and I think it is perfect!
 Right now I have it hanging on the powder room door but I think I will put it on the back of my front door ..
I wrapped Halloween colored berries around the wreath ..
 I cut the welcome sign off the wreath ..it was held on with wire and attached the cat with hot glue to the wreath.. I mounted the stitching on sticky board ..I mounted black and orange polka dot fabric on sticky board ..before I glued them together I added a torn ruffle of orange and black gingham ..I glued the back of the polka dot covered sticky board to the wreath and  added 2 bows and more berries to the sides. I also made a bow for the cat and took off the burlap one it came with ..
This is Field Mouse Hallow from With Thy Needle and Thread
 The classic Colorworks color floss I used .. I used  28 count light grey tea/coffee dyed monaco ..I left out the stars and moon and added some more of the little eggshell colored designs and another sprig of bittersweet ..

This weeks You Tube video ..

That design is so cute. Calvin does look a bit suspicious!
