Framed Mario Cross Stitch

        I finally got around to framing the Mario Cross Stitch I had been working on for Alfredo. I used a $10 frame purchased from AcMoore, which included a mat and I happened to have a coupon. I attached the fabric in the frame using command strips so that I could remove the piece later if needed and had some wiggle room when placing. I think this is an easy framing idea for beginners and because the piece is under the mat the edges are hidden :) 

 

Post again soon :)  

Crochet Challenge!! Day 16: Closet Holiday

I started a project at 7:30 hoping I could crochet fast enough to submit for this theme. Unfortunately it is only half done and I have to be up for work in the morning. I'm going to share what I have right now and show the finished product tomorrow.

It is a image of a bat flying in front of the moon made using the corner to corner method. This is my first time using his method and I really like it so far. Halloween is actually my favorite holiday so it's sad that I could make it fast enough to share the whole thing.
