Halloween Shenanigans (2022) by Mary Anne Ciccotelli (Provo, Utah)
Mary Anne Ciccotelli says, "Redwork is a form of American embroidery that was developed in the 19th century and was particularly popular between 1855 and 1925. This project is a fun play on that technique, but done in white/black." Pumpkins, witches, bats, cobwebs and skeletons play among the blocks. The border is filled with embroidered bones.
Mary Anne explains, "I started the embroidery blocks to keep my hands busy during my recovery from total knee replacement surgery. Embroidery Designs' machine embroidery designs were the inspiration for these hand-embroidered blocks... additional embroidery work was designed and added to the borders."
