I am making a mini-quilt wall-hanging, with a Jack o'lantern on it. I pulled out all the orange scrap fabric I could find and took a contribution from my quilting buddy, T, and pieced the pumpkin part. I am going to applique the eyes, nose, and mouth onto the quilt top. I picked the candy corn fabric for the borders. I have, what I think, is a better idea, now, but that would mean making a second one, and that ain't happening! I have pinned the eyes, nose, and mouth on, so you can see what it is shaping up to be.

I Finished Something!
I made a baby quilt for little Evelyn, aka Evie. I had some shu-fly orphan blocks from a previous study in pink, so I used some of those and some yellow fabrics to go in between. The yellow birds and bees fabrics really set off the pink! I used Winnie the Pooh and friends fabric for the backing.
I quilted it mostly stitch-in-the-ditch on my home sewing machine. I used high-loft batting for extra soft cuddliness! |
