Ghastlie Fever Cure Day!, 2011


If you have this thing for Ghastlies
and they have tied you in a knot
and you wish you could get them out of your mind
than this may be a thought.

We heard her plea for a cure
Mdm Samm was pos/it/ively sure
that we could stitch the nights away
in hopes that we MAY----???
( all 54 of us)

BUT....

The side effects are Ghastlie
there is no mistaking too.
if you don't run this very minute
YOU too will catch the FLU...

We suspected all along
this was her master plan
she did not want to be alone,
with all YOU Ghastlie FANS...

I not only have cured my Ghastlie Fever ( I hope), but I want to encourage a certain college student in her culinary efforts (first week in her new apartment was cold cereal and badly cooked frozen pizzas) with this original creation -- the three-piece Ghastlie Gourmet Ensemble.

That apron really needs a couple of close-ups. I was late entering the blog hop and was only able to find two of the Ghastlies patterns. The two used for the pot holders are Ghastlies; the other three patterns used in the apron are not.



Never fear! This isn't my only Ghastlie creation. I also have a Ghastlie Gift that I will award some lucky follower of my blog, who also follows Madame Samm's blog. So, leave me a comment and I'll count you in. The Ghastlie Glutch....well, I couldn't find an alternate word for "clutch" that started with "G"!

Front


Back


And, inside.

Total size about 8" x 4.5"

Here are more Ghastlie Sisters who are posting today. Be sure to see them all. They will be Gloriously Ghastlie.

Mrs Holly Ghastlie

And the entire schedule can be seen and linked to at Madame Samm's blog.



Whew I am feeling great! No more Ghastlie Fever. Time to go dancing.

  72. What a cute apron! I'm hosting the rehersal dinner for my son's upcoming wedding in just over a week. I guess it would be in poor taste to wear a Ghastlies apron over my lovely clothes while serving/overseeing this whole endeavor on Nov 4th? It's soooo close to, and at times I fear that the dinner may end up looking a little ghastly!!!!
