from The Cricket Collection, stitched by Laura Perin

Laura Perin recently finished this charming Vicki Hastings design of a Haunted House (you may know Vicki as the designer behind Cross-eyed Cricket, Dream House Ventures adapts her work for needlepoint).

Laura has a great post about finishing the piece, with some excellent observations about framing.

She also shares her technique for coloring the canvas, something I’m going to have to try.
