at least "Lumos" isn't creepy...

"Can I have that?" interrupted Draco, pointing at the withered hand on its cushion.

"Ah, the Hand of Glory!" said Mr. Borgin, abandoning Mr. Malfoy's list and scurrying over to Draco. "Insert a candle and it gives light only to the holder! Best friend of thieves and plunderers! Your son has fine taste, sir."

Ooooh, that hand of glory is snazzy! :D

[ofenjen]

Thanks! I'm still trying to decide if I like it not...

[ofenjen]

Honestly, I didn't see it coming either! I've been wracking my brain for a creepy something to finish the month out with. :D

[mkissa]

Its the least I could do. This community has brought my so much joy in the last few months! Thanks though. (Smirk)

Ohhhh Hand of Glory... more blood... SQUEE!

[ofenjen]

Who knew blood and fabric mixed, lol! XD

[mkissa]

I have to tell you. I love seeing your weekly pattern while I am at work. I mentally sift through my stash and think of what fabrics to use where. It is a nice little escape from the grind. This one is puzzling, because of the skin colors and such, and getting the fingers to stand apart while still being part of the same hand. I think I have it figured out though.

I just wanted to share one of my nerdy joys with the community!! :)

[ofenjen]

Ah, thank you! I'm sure I wouldn't still be going at this if it weren't for this community.

I think having more variations in the skin tones would show the fingers off better. In my defense, I've been sick! *sniff*

[mkissa]

I think that it looks fabulous!

[ofenjen]

Thanks :) I'm always harder on my own work than anyone else. Maybe it's just teh grumpy from being sick!

[bumblebre4life]

Holy smokes! Thank you!

I also really like the hand of glory pattern! Perfect one for halloween week too ;-)

[ofenjen]

Glad you like it! It was a wee pain to piece, which is what earned it the "5 Wand" status. ;)

Congrats again!
