It's Halloween
A four-panel Halloween mini set by Luminous Fiber Arts — a black cat arched on a row of jack-o'-lanterns (It's Halloween), a friendly ghost (Happy haunting), a smirking crescent moon (The moon is watching!), and an owl with a candy bucket (Whoo loves candy?). Released as a SAL over summer 2024 and finished as four small framed minis.

It’s Halloween by Luminous Fiber Arts — a four-panel Halloween mini set, released as a stitch-along over summer 2024 with parts dropping at different times. The four panels:
- It’s Halloween — a black cat arched on top of a row of three pumpkin jack-o’-lanterns
- Happy haunting — a wide-eyed ghost
- The moon is watching! — a smirking crescent moon
- Whoo loves candy? — an owl peering out from behind a candy bucket
Stitched on 36ct Fiber on a Whim Appogato Edinburgh linen — a hand-dyed mottled ground that picks up warm and cool flecks under the design. Full chart is 169w × 113h.
Threads are a mix of Classic Colorworks hand-dyeds and DMC:
- Classic Colorworks: Blackbird (2 skeins — the dark outline workhorse), Sassy Brass, Honeycomb
- DMC: Blanc, 976, 3826
Each mini was finished as a small flat-mounted card on a marbled black / orange / green Halloween-colour fabric backing so the four pieces read as a set when grouped on a wall.
Started June 29, 2024 — finished stitching August 12, 2024 — fully finished August 23, 2024.
