City of the Dead | Dirty Annie's
Designer's Note: Where I grew up in South Louisiana, we keep our bodies above ground. Why? It's below sea level and the bodies would float right up! If you haven't done a New Orleans Cemetery tour yet I would highly recommend it! Each of these tombs is based on an actual tomb in New Orleans. Marie Laveau's is in the top left hand corner. Stitch them each separately for Halloween ornaments or stitch them together as shown. This is a big one!
Special thanks to Eryn Raymond, a New Orleans native, for stitching this one! And to Accents Inc Cross Stitch shop in New Orleans for framing it. The model lives at Accents so if you are ever in that area stop by and see it in person. They also specialize in Louisiana themed cross stitch charts.

If your order contains any pre-order items, your order will be held until all items are ready to ship. Consider placing separate orders if you would like to receive your in-stock items sooner. Multiple orders will be shipped together whenever possible and any shipping overages will be refunded to you.
At this time, shipping is only available for US and Canada. I ship primarily via USPS from Northern California.
