Easter and Halloween Freebies

My apologies, I've been having computer issues this past couple of months. I stitched a freebie in time for Easter, but couldn't post it! I have also stitched another Halloween freebie, so I am posting them today, now that my 'pute seems to want to work (at least a little).

Puppet Freebie

This one is very old indeed. It comes from a DMC booklet published back around the late 1800s in France. It is now in the public domain in a few places, but I am including the link for the easiest of places to get it, plus she has a whole bunch of really nice other public domain freebies there too :-)
