Thanks again for including me in this group. I chose a freebie from the subrosa blog for my witch. It was a little big for an ornament stitched over 2 on (my usual) 32 count linen over 2 so I stitched it on a piece of lugana (I believe)...25 count over one. I'm please with how it turned out.
I should tell you how I "scored" the lugana. I haunt a local resale shop fairly regularly for cross stitch leaflets, magazines, etc. Sometimes I walk out empty handed but sometimes I find something exciting. One day I found a big plastic "bag" (from a bedspread) full of different colors of lugana, some even full yards. $10! I was a little disappointed in the count but there was so much fabric there, I thought I could figure something out to do with it.
Anyway, here's my witch:

I love over one stitching so much. I don't have much 25 count fabric, just some nice yellow.
Thanks, everyone!
I'm already starting to look for skeletons for next month. What a fun group!
Great choice! and a great find! I like using 25ct over 1 for ornaments.
Great choice for Jan's witch :o)
I love your story of how you scored the fabric... what a great idea and great addition to your fabric stash!
Hugs xx
I love your witch ornament, and the fabric is very nice. It turned out very well over 1 on the lugana. And nice haul on the bag of fabric! :o)
Love your ornament.
