Spooky and Silly Halloween Quilts!

Spooks on Parade

Have a stash of Halloween fabric that you are just not sure of how to use? Or maybe you just want to make a Halloween quilt that is both spooky and silly!

...if you answered yes to either question then this is the quilt for you!

Spooks on Parade is an easy, fast, fat quarter friendly quilt pattern that finishes 56" x 68" making the perfect lap quilt. The pattern also includes instruction for a table runner - so a little "Halloween Treat!"

Want to have this quilt just as it is? No problem, we have kits made up for you, too!

We think what makes this quilt so fun - besides the spooky ghosts on it - is that you can pick so many different fabrics! There are so many great Halloween lines this year...like "Seen on Halloween" so you can really satisfy your "fabric tooth" and pick out some new fabrics and some fabrics from your stash and just make a quilt that takes very little time to complete but will make you smile everytime you see it!

Stay tuned to tomorrow's post - we will have another quilt idea for you!

Happy Quilting,

Spooky and Silly Halloween Quilts!

A great way to celebrate Quilting and Friendship

Here at the store we get to quilt with each other all the time...it is so great to spend our days with beautiful fabrics and wonderful friends.We get to eat lunch together, we put together new quilt kits, play with new tools, test new patterns, and anything else wonderful you can think of.

So, to celebrate National Friendship Month and National Sewing Month we want to make a day dedicated to sewing with friends! 

Right now, call your girlfriends and sit-n-stitch group and set Saturday the 25th or Sunday the 26th and make it an all out mini-quilt retreat. Pick one of your homes and designate that the location. Each of you bring a tasty treat - a casserole, dessert, or snack food - and get to sewing! 

You can all make the same project, too. We are getting ready for Halloween so we will share some of the cute stuff. (If you need to order any supplies or fabrics for your girlfriend quilt retreat it should come in before the 25th -  so any ideas we share this week can be an option for you!)

 Spooks on Parade Quilt Kit

How quick and adorable is this quilt kit?! We think this will be so good for a girlfriends get together because 1. It is a quick quilt kit to cut and sew together and 2. You don't have to think too hard...when we get to talking to much here at the store we sometimes end up with a "humility block" and 3. It will be so cute at your house when you are passing out candy to the Trick or Treaters. ...or you can give it to your favorite little one for Halloween!

The quilt finishes 56"x68"

What else is fun at Halloween? When we were kids we used pillowcases as our trick or treat bags...so don't forget about our pillow case pattern. Here is the cutest Halloween Fabric that any little one would love:

Kids just love Eerie little things like Spiders and Spider Webs...

So like we said, call your friends and schedule your day! Everyday leading up to the big day we will have fun ideas - and we will throw in some yummy food recipes, too! Let us know here on the blog or on Facebook what you and your friends are planning on making - we will share pictures from the store that day, too!

Happy Friendship Month,
