It’s feeling a little like fall and that means time to break out the fall decor! I made this quilt last year and it’s one of my favorites! I decorate my dining/living room with a more neutral pallet and I love using black and gray to decorate for Halloween. The family room and kitchen are bright orange, black, and turquoise 🙂 I used a variety of neutrals and gray/blacks from Penny Rose Fabrics. You can download the details of the pattern HERE.
Quilt measures 42″ square.
Most of the black/gray fabrics are from the Civil War Times fabric line. I love the variety! The rest of the fabrics are from Penny Rose Classics.I love black and metallic pumpkins on vintage candlesticks!
I first made the background by sewing 5″ squares together in 7 rows of 7. Then the applique comes next. You could totally add ghosts and bats, I wanted to keep it simple.
The moon is made by tracing a pie plate.
Here is a little close up of the quilting, with Mufasa’s permission 🙂 I love striped binding cut on the bias – it’s my absolute FAVORITE!!!! The backing is from Penny Rose’s mensware line – I love houndstooth!!!Ok, so this is totally my new favorite Halloween Quilt!
