Ghosts and Witches!

Here is the next BOM for A Quilting Life.  Keeping all caught up!

Hazel told me I needed more Halloween decorations so I whipped up a couple ghost pillows.  I will send one home with her.  

Then today I decided I needed one to match the little ghost who was a quilt quilt!  So I sewed with Becky and Barb and got this made today.

Last week I quilted and bound it and Hazel has been loving it.  Has napped with it, used it to play with her beans, etc.  


Today I also paper pieced this witch which has been on my list for many years!  I love how she came out and she will join the jack o lantern and black cat I did years ago.  All the patterns are free ones online.

The Little Ghost Who Was a Quilt and More!


Barb sent me "The Little Ghost Who Was a Quilt" for my birthday and it inspired me to whip up a little quilt to match.  
This is an Eye Spy I finished at the old house that I am not sure made it in the blog.  
Hazel enjoyed doing some art work at my house yesterday.  She made a pom pom jack o lantern and then several monsters.  She is three now--time flies so fast!
I decided to machine stitch around the flowers and all for September Golds by Kathleen Tracy.  I then quilted around those same things and got it bound.  I did a single fold binding and figured out how to meet it up.  I like the method and may try doing that on all my quilts (the meet up not the single fold).
Sewed with Becky and Barb today for a bit.  I made my brown RSC blocks (Dakota Farmer) even though brown has not been called.  October is light neutrals which I am not doing.  I did start putting some of my blocks together too.  The RSC is coming along and I have too many blocks already in too many sizes.  Super happy to be using up the half square triangles that have accumulated the past decade or so!

 

Catch Up of Other Activities!

I went to the Strong Tower Gaming Convention this year.  It was super fun.  I stayed in the hotel with Ashley and Miranda.  I was super tire...
