When I was growing up, there were two basic Halloween colors: Black and Orange.
In the 1990s, Purple was introduced as the "new" Black.
Soon after that, an "acid" Lime Green came along.
Now in 2012, we have a new Halloween color palette brewing: Hot Pink, Pink, and Green... all thanks to Barbara Bergsten Designs.
Barbara, known for the wonderful "Lilly Pulitzer" inspired color palette of needlepoint canvases, is now embracing her "newly found" inner Halloween. These are so cute, and are about 3 inch ornaments on 18 mesh. (On 14 mesh they are 3.75".) Available soon from your Local Needlepoint Shops. I can not wait to stitch these!

These are so awesome. As you, can't wait to get my hands on them. Have been through a lot of pink lately, lol. I wonder if there's a pink cat somewhere (not on canvas, a real one) - wouldn't that be cute?
ReplyDeletePS: speaking of cats, we need updates on Luna and Leo :)
