Sold, thank youHalloween Huswife

This is my favorite huswife that I have ever stitched. The colors are not typical Halloween colors but they really look beautiful together. I cross stitched a Quaker cat pattern in black and purple.

There are two bone rings stitched to the top to tie it closed or to hang it. It is 15” long x 5” wide and when closed it measures 5” x 5”. Kindly asking $72.00 and $8.00 for travel fare.
