[ENG-SPA] Halloween Challenge NeedleWorkMask: Skull mask 💀//Máscara de Calavera 💀

Hello #hive friends. Greetings to the #NeedleWorkMonday community. Happy Monday and start of the week.

To conclude my project of the second edition of HALLOWEEN allegorical figures I made a skull mask 💀 at the same time to participate in the Halloween Challenge NeedleWorkMask contest initiative of Hive account@irenenavarroart from the #NeedleWorkMonday community. The mask was made with black and white felt, measurements of the face were taken to make the diagram, it also has a black cloth scarf of 100x12 cms to cover the head. Without further ado, let's go to the brief explanation.

Thanks to the #NeedleWorkMonday community for receiving this work, together with the initiative of our friend Hive account@irenenavarroart and thus we get our decorations and accessories to celebrate, although in our country and in my city it is not customary to celebrate these holidays. But I will humbly decorate my table and enjoy sweets and treats with my mask. Besides, it has served as entertainment and creativity, something very important in these times. I have also enjoyed participating in these challenges, I had never done it in any network before.
Another thing, I have had difficulties to make this publication, the internet connection is terrible, it has caused me a lot of stress.

Gracias a la comunidad de #NeedleWorkMonday por recibir este trabajo, aunado a la iniciativa de la amiga Hive account@irenenavarroart y así obtenemos nuestros adornos o complementos para celebrar, aunque en nuestro país y en mi ciudad no se acostumbra dichas fiestas. Pero con humildad adornaré mi mesa y disfrutaré de dulces y golosinas con mi máscara. Además, me ha servido de entretenimiento y creatividad, algo muy importante en estos tiempos. También me ha gustado participar en estos retos, nunca lo habia hecho en ninguna red.
Otra cosa, he tenido dificultades para realizar esta publicación la conexión de internet esta fatal, me ha causado mucho estrés.
