FO: Sparkling Halloween Cider

Even though I've made Halloween things before, this is my first Halloween quilt! Jeni has used the Sparkling Cider pattern many times, and I always enjoy seeing it. So, I decided that it would make a great Halloween quilt.
I mean, I love stars, and scrappiness, so it felt like a great fit.

Not surprisingly, this could just as well be considered a cat quilt.

I used a variety of stashed prints, including Lizzy House ghosts, Cotton & Steel prints, solids, and a Heidi Kenney Spoonflower print.

I made the "Lap size", which is nice 64" x 80". I backed it with a widescreen and quilted it with random straight lines (in this Sulky color). The binding is this amazing print.

Happy Halloween!

A Halloween Mini for Amy

I have lots to share with you, the first thing being this mini.

Amy is a Halloween baby, and she loves the holiday. I decided to make her a spiderweb mini quilt, as part of her gift this year.

I used my 60 degree triangle template and some fabric strips to make six triangles. I used Kona Coal to finish the top.

I used straight line quilting to divide the top into sections, and then free-motion quilted squiggles and triangles. The spiderweb section is, naturally, quilted with a spiderweb.
I used orange binding to finish.

See you again later this week!
