Anyway autumn has arrived in Scotland. The weather has turned cold and windy. Oh and wet also. I actually like this time of year though as I'm not a hot weather person and at least you can dress to keep the cold out. The only downside is that its dark so very early. At the height of winter, its often dark until 9am and dark again shortly after 3pm.
Inspite of not having anything planned for Halloween, I decorated a book case that I have in my hall. I've got a fair few different seasonal bits and bobs and I change what's on it depending on the time of year.
Here is what it looks like right now.
I heard last week that Carla had received the Halloween exchange I stitched for her.
I had hoped to finish Happy haunting by Shepherd's bush prior to Halloween. I started it at the retreat last year. Here's where I'm at just now.
I did find the time to finish some appropriate coloured socks though
I hope everyone has had a happy and safe Halloween.

I love your little Halloween display.
Nice start to Happy Haunting! At least you'll have it finished by the next retreat!
Wonderful corner of decorations! This year I only had 1 halloween decoration to put up, the same piece I've hung for the last 6 years.
Love your decorations and stitching. You've done a great job! Enjoy your autumn! I'm with you on the weather..I hate heat.
I love the colors of those socks.

Lovely stitching and knitting, Paula. I really love that SB.
Your Halloween display is great! And I always love to see your stitching. Great goth socks too :)
PS: I cant believe I forgot Heroes was on last night!!! I love it too, but my number one show atm is Battlestar Galatica (although thats on holiday).
Your bookcase looks lovely, what a great idea to decorate it depending on the season. I really love your Shepherd's Bush design too!
I love Heroes! Season two has just started here, and I can't get enough of it. Dr Who and Black Books are my all time favourites too. You have good taste! :P
The halloween decorations look great - beautiful colours.
I love your Halloween display and your halloween exchange gift for Carla!

I love the idea of having a seasonal display area. Yours looks lovely!
Great stitching and fab socks!

What a lovely display Paula :) like being at my sisters... it makes me realise I should do some stitched pieces for myself and home, I think I shall next year :)
Great socks too even though they look totally baffling to make to me lol !!
Your Halloween themed hall was fantastic, Paula! :) Your Happy Haunting is coming along great too... I found it went fast after completing that hill at the top - I didn't think I wss ever going to finish all that grass!
Great photos from your sisters wedding... the dresses were beautiful - your mum is a star. :)
What a fun Halloween display, they look so cute all set out together like that. Happy Haunting is looking lovely too. The SB patterns are so pretty, the colors are always so soft and pretty. Finally, what fun socks, those will be fun to wear.
