Free October Cross Stitch Pattern ~ Ghost Duck

 




Ghost Duck is one our newest pattern.  It is one of five Halloween Duck patterns.  Each Halloween Duck can be stitched individually or together.


I stitched Ghost Duck individually and made it into a pillow. 


The stitch count for Ghost Duck is 35x55. 


The finished model was 2.5 x 4" 





The model was stitched with DMC Floss on 14 ct hand-dyed Aida. 




I dyed the aida with Purple, Inidgo, and Charcoal Rit Dye using "kinda" a tie dye method.
