💐This was one of my gifts to my Mom for Mother's Day❣️
Would you like to read a bizarre, creepy, short novel? This is the one for you!😬 This is the story of 3 members of the Blackwood family & their life after the murders of their father, mother, brother & their uncle’s wife. The 3 remaining Blackwoods live in their house isolated from the village with fences & padlocks & no trespassing signs. I thoroughly enjoyed this book. No swearing, no blood and gore, just psychologically intriguing.
Taking readers deep into a labyrinth of dark neurosis, We Have Always Lived in the Castle is a deliciously unsettling novel about a perverse, isolated, and possibly murderous family and the struggle that ensues when a cousin arrives at their estate.
I am stitching up a small piece for the cubby shelf next.
I hope that you have a good week my friends! Stay strong. Stay healthy. God bless you.
Stitching and praying,
Vickie

Vickie, As another cat lover I love your gift for your Mom. It is so sweet and that frame is so unique! It looks like vintage pink milk glass. You have a great stash of frames!!
I am so sure it must have been difficult not to hug and kiss your Mom but you certainly made the right decision. HOpe you had a nice Mother's day!
Love your sweet stitch for your mother .
I bet she loved it .

A super frame for this pretty design, its lovely.
Strange times, but we all need to stay safe.

Whoah, Shirley Jackson! What a writer she was. Hope you had a lovely Mother's Day!
What a cute gift! Good thing we have the memories of many, many hugs from out Moms (and from us to our kids/grands) to think on during this strange time.
Vickie: happy Mothers Day, this is such a sweet design, I love that your Mother is a crazy cat lady.
Stay Healthy

A pretty pattern, your mom was certainly very happy that you were there for a visit. Yes, now in bad times, you can be thankful that you can visit the family at least at a distance.
Wishing you all the best, Martina
A lovely little gift for your mom.
Have a nice week. Manuela

What a fabulous kitty piece you stitched and framed for your Mom! Well done, Vickie! Have a good week!
Super kitty for your mum, I'm pleased to read you could see her, I'm sure there will be some very big hugs soon x
Such a sweet finish for your mom! It's good you got to visit with her, even if it was from a distance. I've always been curious about that Shirley Jackson book. I might try it now that you've recommended it.
What a perfect stitch for your Mom since she likes both cats and gardening. That book sounds quite interesting!
It is a worrying time, but I am glad you could meet with your mum and give her such a pretty stitch!
Stay safe
That is a very sweet present and I am glad that you got to see your Mum, even if it was from a distance.
Such a beautiful piece you made for your mom. I love how you always give her something kitty related. I keep seeing that book but haven't read it yet. I'm thinking it needs to go on my "to be read" list.

That really is a purrfect stitch for your Mom since she loves cats and gardening! It is so hard not to be able to have contact with loved ones away from us.
Creepy books? Yes, please!
