House #5 of Halloween House Row



This is another cutie from the mind of Amy Bunger.  I love the roof.  It's a Fern Stitch variation using three strands of silk.

Halloween House Row by Melissa Shirley


This is House #2 of the Melissa Shirley's Halloween House Row.  I'm using Amy Bunger's stitch guide.  This is a fun one to stitch.  


Overview
 The pale mauve walls are Sandy's Slide with two strands of overdyed floss.  The walls around the window are Checkered Cross using a twisted cotton thread.



The foundation is the Woven Stitch in a twisted cotton thread.  Luscious color.



The roof is the Double Stitch using two strands of Burmilana.  The window arch is Criss Cross Hungarian.
