Glow-in-the-dark fabric? Is that even possible? Yes, it really is. It works best when you hold your completed design up to a bright light then turn off all the lights. You will actually be amazed! And this design works perfectly because the word Halloween is so prominent and you can still see the outlines of the characters in the dark. This is what I like to call taking counted cross-stitch to the next level!
Fabric: Stitched on 28ct Glow In The Dark Linen by Fabric Flair
Stitch Area: 280w X 90h

Materials Summary: Model stitched with 16 colors of Weeks Dye Works. The Gentle Art and Classic Colorworks (formerly Crescent Colours) comparables provided in the chart below. For this particular chart, a DMC alternative is also provided. However, please keep in mind that it is very difficult to select a solid color of floss in those instances where a hand-dyed, variegated floss is used. An attempt has been made to select a DMC solid color that compliments the design. However, for a couple of the symbols, a DMC Color Variations color is suggested.
