W.i.P Wednesday: Ghastly Goings On...


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:-)

  11. What 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 :)
