The Cutting Table Quilt Blog - A Blog for Quilters by Quilters
Quilting should be fun and we give you easy quilting projects, quick quilting how-to tutorials, and commentary to keep you smiling till the very last stitch.
One hundred years ago, Halloween was more about tricks than treats. Instead of trekking door to door to collect candy, kids spent the evening pulling pranks on their neighbors. A little doorbell ditching here, a little property damage there. Frankly, I say bring on the sweets!
Everything is more fun with candy – even quilts! This week Jenny is stitching up a delicious Candy Twist Quilt.
Watch for a bonus Halloween table runner at the end, and you’re going to love it!
There’s a wicked little chill in the air. The pumpkins are carved, the costumes are prepped, and I’ve already started sneaking candies from the trick or treat bowl. Halloween is just days away, but we still have one more weekend of holiday sewing to do!
This week Jenny is working on an adorable Halloween wall hanging featuring kitty cats, witch hats, and one great big pumpkin. Click HERE to learn how to make Fall Shenanigans!
(Jenny uses an Under a Spell layer cake by Jennifer Pugh for Wilmington. Click HERE to see our entire collection of Halloween fabric. We’ve got skeletons, monsters, and spiders galore!)
We are in the Show Me Safari Shop Hop again this year, and are having a blast! This years theme is Halloween and we made a row quilt. Each Shop designed it’s very own row. I just wanted to show the picture of our quilt off to you!
Mom {Jenny} and Jill. Can you see my cute Dad at the quilt machine back there?
Can you guess which row we designed??
If you are on facebook you saw that I bought a new {to me} sewing machine this morning! I am so excited! The machine I’ve been using is awful and I’m excited to be able to sew some more. I have some really fun projects and ideas I can’t wait to start on!
Mom of course, never stops sewing and we have more and more in the works for you all!
SO, have a great weekend. I hope you do something you love. Go out and enjoy the beautiful Fall weather with your family, or sew-sew-sew!
Talk to you soon,
Sarah
