I hope to stitch awhile longer, but am stopping for a moment to provide you with an update. The left bottom half is finished!
I think I am going to work on the top left now for a change of pace.
I thought it would be fun to look back at some of our Halloween's of the past. Today I dug through old photos; they really brought back some memories.
When my kids were small we did not trick or treat in the neighborhood. I dressed them up and took them to visit my mom, one of her old neighbors, and several of my aunts and uncles. I think the old folks had as much fun as the kids did. Here are a couple photos from my son's first few Halloweens!
1990 - Pat was ten months old...
1991 - we had a horrible blizzard - no trick or treating this year!
1992 - Pat loved the Gedney pickle at the State Fair this year, so I made him a pickle costume!
When it came time to go trick or treating, he didn't want to wear the pickle costume. So, instead, he wore the Dalmatian costume that I made the year before (the year of the blizzard). With Auntie Florence and Auntie Betty...
More pictures tomorrow night!

Nothing like a homemade costume.
