I am from Northern California and am married with 3 grown sons, 1 grandson and another grandchild due in March. I love to scrapbook, travel, sew and I am brand new to quilting. In fact I just completed my very 1st quilting project. A disappearing 9-patch Halloween table runner. I had a pattern for the 9-patch but winged it on the rest of the runner. Not too bad for a newbie!

the finished runner!

spider web quilting. I hope the purple lines disappear!

I added a bat to the middle square on the white fabric.

the back of the runner. I added a witch hat in the middle square too.
