It was a great progress-filled IHSW this month so I am very happy.
Saturday morning started off with my three daily projects being worked on:
Just Nan - Autumn in the Square
Just Nan - Happy Bluebird
Hetti - Temperature SAL
Then I continued with my Hallowe'en project which is Jardin Prive's Happy Hallowe'en Night. Stitching one motif per month to tie in with the Hallowe'en Ornie Blog SAL. This month was Haunted Houses and it was a big one!
Here is the whole piece and a better colour match for the fabric too:
stitched on 32 count Cognac linen
On Sunday I switched to my Donna Kooler Tinies:
stitched on 22 count Hardanger
That might look like a pumpkin, but it's actually a Christmas Teapot!
Next project to share is Alice and the Flamingo by Mrs Peggotty. Here is what she looked like last IHSW:
And here is where she is now, lots of Flamingo head and neck and beak:
stitched over 1 on 25 count blue evenweave
A few people have said that they don't do Facebook and asked if I could host a link-up for them, so here it is! Just add your name and the link to your actual IHSW post, not just your blog home page.

Beautiful progress on your WIPs. Love your Halloween piece.
I need to get my GG post up. Also progress on my IHSW...Love your progress especially on your daily projects.
Wow! Lots of great progress. I love the temperature project!
No, I'm certain that's a pumpkin, not a Christmas teapot. I like the parked floss around the temperature SAL. It's a good reminder of how crazy the weather has been! Alice looks like she's patiently(?) waiting for her other arm.
Fantastic progress for one weekend. Love how colourful the Temperature SAL is looking now we've had our heatwave. :)
You got loads done!
Great progress. I love seeing progress.
You certainly had a productive weekend....you got lots of stitching done. Each project looks wonderful.
Love your temperature SAL. Will have to do it next year!
Awesome progress Jo. I love the Halloween piece. Alice is looking amazing. I'm still plugging away on mine. I WILL get it done by the end of the year.

Great stitching progress! I do love Halloween Night. The linen color is perfect!
Yet another productive IHSW for you, Jo. Alice is looking great! x
How cute is Alice!! You have made wonderful progress on her, Jo (not to mention all of your other cute projects!!). I really love the fabric for the Halloween Night piece. Enjoy your day!
Your permitting weekend went perfectly well with lots of progress, didn't it? It must feel great to work on so many different projects.
You were busy, Alice is looking great, loving the JN Autumn in the Garden too.
Lovely progress! I was traveling this month, and while I spent a lot of Sunday inside the hotel, the light was terrible, so not much stitching happened. I'll make up for it in September, though!
I am loving your Halloween! And yes, you fooled me thinking that will be a pumpkin teapot. Yay, the flamingo is showing itself!
