15. Just Nan Scream House



Just Nan Scream House

This design was my "unicorn" chart for so long and I was lucky enough to nab one in a destash post.

Front Door
I used a little key to hold the ribbons in place.  
A witch would keep her spare key on the roof, not under her doormat!

  

Spider Charm on the roof

I started stitching for Dark October 2020, continued in 2021 and actually finished the majority of the stitching then.

Just a base left to be completed this year.  Which is why the tombstone says MMXXI.
  
Once I completed the stitching, I had to mount 18 pieces onto thin card, whip stitch them in pairs and then attach the roof pieces to the walls and the walls to the base.

Inside the house there are more delights
Netty Nightshade


This was a piece of chenille fabric sample stitched in place
This is the needle minder from the Stitchonomy Cabinet of Curiosities.  
I stuck one magnet to the inside of the paper when I mounted this wall.
The other magnet is this side as I can change the needleminder if I want.
