Thanks to everyone who is using my sugar candy skull patterns to celebrate Halloween and Dia de los Muertos. I’m thrilled to show you that Sharon from gentlestitches.com used my patterns to help her bring Day of the Dead to Australia! Thank you, Sharon, for spreading the word about this celebration with your friends down under. If you want to share photos of your skulls, send them to squirrelpicnic@gmail.com. I’d love to see them!
Join me today at the Gothic “not for profit” Montsalvat. Have a look around, join me in a picnic and a quiet read. Help yourself to a free amigurumi pattern and enjoy the visual and peaceful treat which is Monsalvat before you go. Take some deep breaths under the gum trees and enjoy the art and hand crafted items on display. Take 5 minutes of delicious “you time” ❤
First up our the famous Australian red backed spiders.
Beware of flying Bats (not this one though, it is friendly and cuddly) 😀
Grab yourself a free zombie bunny pattern before they grab you.
Just in time for día de los muertos, a large or small sugar skull from Jennifer at squirrel picnic. Pattern here.
Happy Halloween everyone! Enjoy the music as Shane pipes you out.

Hi Donna! Thank you for your comment. Sorry there wasn’t more Squirrel Picnic in this post. It was a reblog from a friend of Squirrel Picnic in Australia who was using my patterns to celebrate Day of the Dead. If you have used my patterns to create something awesome, be sure to send photos to squirrelpicnic@gmail.com and I’ll feature them here too! I’ve been overwhelmed for the last few months getting ready for an event. I promise that this month we’ll be back to the usual fun here at the picnic. Thank you for your patience.
