It was so nice to get in some extra sewing time with the long weekend!!! Monday the kids had friends over which meant I got to sneak off to my studio to play while they were entertained:-) I actually have two Ghastlies quilts going (because 4 just isn't enough!). These quilts have been haunting me since last year so it's time to finally get them put together.
The checkerboard background for this one went together really quickly and after a quick run over to
Quilter's Way for batting I was able to get it basted and quilted. All of the circles are made so now I just have to stitch them down.
Then I pulled this stack of fabrics because nothing says Halloween like pink and green;-) More Halloween treats to add to my collection.
And since I really wanted to try out my
new toy with some FMQ I tried spinning up some spiderwebs. I've been dying to try out this awesome
spiderweb tutorial by the fabulous Kristie at
ocd:obsessive crafting disorder. It really is as easy as she says:-)
OH! I love how the spiderwebs are turning out! Can't wait to see it in person! How fun!
ReplyDeleteFantastic fabric and I love the way you are using it.
ReplyDeleteToo funny- I have a Ghastlies quilt (still) underway, and that pink is what I chose for the binding! Great choice. =)
ReplyDeleteSuper cool fabric. Love it. It's very different from anything that I am doing and that's my favorite part. Looks awesome.
ReplyDeleteThose are so great! I love the Ghastlies :) And thanks for the link to the spider web tut! Totally want to give it a shot!
ReplyDeleteAs you know, I don't really get the Ghastlies thing BUT I love, love, love the spider web quilting! Awesome!
ReplyDeleteThe spider web quilting is really cool.
ReplyDeleteCan there ever be too many Halloween quilts? Um, no.
ReplyDeleteLove your spiderweb quilting! How's the new table treating you?
ReplyDeleteGreat pattern! Love it!
ReplyDeleteYour quilting is looking awesome!
Love the spider web quilting!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea cutting the circles! The spider webbing is really perfect, I did that on my Ghastly quilt but it didn't show, putting it in the corner is great. I just saw the Ghastly Holiday fabric for the first time, how did I not know about that, and of course thought of you :)
