Be sure to check out her beautiful work!
I stitched #9 back in 2000 and it is my favorite Halloween project.
When I found this pattern it was in the discontinued bucket at a LNS and I had no idea until two years ago that there was another house (#15) that has the cutest witch and superman trick or treaters.
I can tell you right here, right now I will NOT be buying this pattern online for $60 some dollars!! That is crazy! Yes i just saw a closed auction for the two patterns for $63. Now if Ms. Kirby herself was selling it for that I would consider it, as she would be profiting from the increase in value of her design.
I will continue in my hunt at used book stores and yard sales, that by chance I will find #15. Until then I will admire the works of others who have completed this adorable pair of houses.
Hope you are having a Spooktacular autumn season!

Wish I had this to send to you! Hopefully someone can help you out!
You are too sweet. Some times it's the hunt that is most exciting. Hehehe.
Thank you! It was nice to hear the kind words
I was so surprised.
I would love to borrow you the pattern when I get done, but who knows when that wil be, no promises here, lol
I think over the years I have list somewhere of stitchers that want it stitch them.
The framed piece looks great. I lovevthectrick or treaters like you, they are so cute.

I just found your blog & I love the lovely Halloween cross stitch you've made over the years!! And that apple pie was the best, it looks so yummy ☺
I just bought #15 at Mari-Pat's in Long Beach, Ca. For just 3.50 plus tax. If you want it, just let me know...I can get it if they don't want to mail it to you. I know they had one left Sat. I was looking for #9, but like you, not for that price.
Hello, I just discovered your blog while searching for house #9. You've done a beautiful job of stitching it! :) I am probably too late, but in case you haven't found House#15 yet...... I have House#15 and, once I'm done stitching it, I can send you the chart if you'd like to swap your #9? The Superman and Witch are very cute and, even though #15 can stand alone, I would much prefer having both scenes/houses stitched together. (Like you, I don't wish to pay the crazy high prices that people are asking for these charts online, unless it was to the designer directly, but I would love to share my chart#15 with a fellow stitcher)
Sincerely,
Christine (dcwalk@nl.rogers.com)
