    Default "Calendula Patterdrip's Cottage"

    Hi everyone, Is anyone else doing or have done this pattern? I just bought all my thread for it. I am so excited to get started on it. It's called "Calendula Patterdrip's Cottage" by Crabapple Hill Pattern and I just fell in love with it. I like to do hand embroidery, love monochromatic quilts, so this was made for me. I'm not that crazy about Halloween but I think this will be fun. It's not a new pattern. You can see it here: http://www.crabapplehillstudio.com/i...s-cottage.html And I get to play with crayons!!!! I hope to get started on it pretty soon. Redoing my quilt room right now. Waiting for cooler weather.

    That looks like fun and the detail is wonderful! I don't do Halloween myself, but the quilt is really special. Have fun!

    I love the pattern and although it suggests Halloween, it could also suggest a Harry Potter theme.

    I bought this and the supplies to make it but I got caught up in a Diamonds Jubilee bargello and don't want to add another project just yet . I'm thinking it will be a perfect project for football season....as I like to have things to do with my hands while I watch /listen to games. All Crabapple Studios Designs are fantastic. What a talented gal!

    I have to agree with Ladyjanedoe........it will probably be cooler weather before I start this. It will put me in the mood more so than this heat! I have been picking out fabrics and think I will add a little bling to it. I am just gonna have fun with it. Like maybe some black crystals here and there in the spider web........anybody got any more ideas?

    I have the pattern. I am planning on doing it soon. But I am adding applique in place of the crayons. I will keep to the tans and browns. I really do like the pattern. I have made many Crabapple hill patterns. Luann

    I LOVE anything that has embroidery in it BUT, I need some color in this quilt. Has anyone done this quilt or can share some tips as to how I can Haloween this up with more color while not taking away from the embroidery?? I love the ideal with about adding some crystals but what would the applique look like??? Help!
