Last month I used my scraps to make a Halloween Quilt using 2 1/2" strips. Needless to say I had lots of fabric left over from my Halloween stash (that's what fabric hoarders do). I am hooked on using a solid black background fabric and thus I decided to try another Halloween project using 5" squares (charms). Halloween is almost here so I am cataloging these ideas for next year. I love the double pinwheels that seem to flow throughout the quilt.
I used a pattern called "Xs and Os" by Olive Tree Textiles. I modified it a bit by adding borders using 2 1/2" strips left over from my other project and more black and this is what I came up with. I did a simple loop design for the quilting with purple thread.
The back of the quilt was from my stash of Halloween yardage that I try and purchase when the season is over for a wonderful discount. This stripe and purple print with witches is just bewitching!
It's another favorite.
HAPPY HALLOWEEN!
