Happy Halloween

Hope you like my Halloween decorations.  After an inspirational trip to Atlanta, where everyone (so it seems) decorates their yards and houses for the holiday, I decided to have my own display.

I had purchased the little witches houses in California in 2001.  The other things are a selection of things I collected when childminding and that my son sent last year from Atlanta.

I made this fabric pumpkin this evening.  It is about 3 inches high and 5 inches diameter.
The pattern for the pumpkin is on About.com - search for fabric pumpkin pattern.

Red sky in the morning.....



........ there's a rhyme to go with that........ but Bradford looked quite pretty from the viaduct at 7am this morning.

This was my entry for the Local Landscapes at South Square Art Gallery. 
What can I make with £17.50 worth of wood?
Saw a few bits......

Hammer a few nails in....

And two hours later...... a little cat house!!  Just needs some indoor soft furnishings and a bit of plastic to cover the roof.
