NEW Halloween Bowls & A Spooky FREEBIE!
Dear [FIRSTNAME]
Halloween is almost here, and I've got two fun designs to share with you this week!
First up is a new addition to our popular In the Hoop Bowl collection. I've listened to your feedback and added some of the features you've been asking for.
And of course, we have a cheeky little Halloween freebie too!
NEW – In the Hoop Peeking Halloween Bowl
You Asked… I Listened!
Our original In the Hoop Bowls have been a long-time favourite, and I've had some wonderful suggestions from you all about what you'd like to see in future versions.
So I'm excited to introduce our NEW In the Hoop Peeking Halloween Bowl!
Featuring six fun Halloween characters peeking out from around the sides, these bowls are perfect for filling with Halloween lollies and treats, or simply adding a little spooky fun to your decorating.
But what makes this version different?
You can mix and match!
With the multi-hooping versions, you have complete control over your finished bowl.
🎃 Use all six Halloween characters.
👻 Choose just one or two favourites and combine them with plain petals.
🕷️ Or skip the characters and show off your favourite Halloween fabrics instead!
Small hoops or large hoops — I've included options for both!
-
4x4 Hoop: Multi-hooping version creates a bowl approximately 8–9 inches wide.
-
5x5 Hoop: Multi-hooping version creates a bowl approximately 11.5–12.5 inches wide.
-
8x8, 9x9 and 10x10 Hoops: Convenient one-hooping versions.

Did You Miss Last Week's New Design?
Our Large Applique Wolf was released last week, and just look at these two stunning stitch-outs!
Sarah and Sally have absolutely wowed me with their beautiful versions! 💙
Sarah has chosen gorgeous blues and florals, while Sally has gone with spooky halloween fabrics — two completely different looks from the very same design!
This is exactly what I love about our Large Applique designs. By choosing your own fabrics, you can create something truly unique.
Thank you, Sarah and Sally, for sharing your beautiful work! ❤️

NEW FREEBIE
Look who's popping out of the vortex!
This week's freebie is something a little different for Halloween!
Our cheeky little skeleton is emerging from the centre of a swirling, quilted vortex, ready to add some spooky fun to your stitching.

I've stitched my samples in both light and dark fabrics, and I love how different they look!
Perfect for Halloween parties, spooky table decorations or a fun little handmade gift.
