I'm always looking for reasons to use glow in the dark thread and October is the perfect month to find some. This Embroidered Boo Sweater uses an easy pattern that will really make a plain sweater pop during the day, but is extra special at night when the glow in the dark floss shows up.

Witch Silhouette Hoop Art
It's time for another round of Craft Lightning and I'm so crazy excited that it's not only Halloween themed, but Cricut themed, too! My Cricut Maker took the long way to Edinburgh and arrived just in time for me to make my first project-- a fun Witch Silhouette Hoop Art. I have been so antsy to make sure I wasn't dreaming when I watched it cut felt at the Cricut Mountain Make-a-Thon and a silhouette with lots of detail seemed like a great way to test it out.
