    I love this table topper/wall hanging...so I finally made it. It is from McCall's Quick Quilts, Nov 2007. The one in the magazine had a spider web on black material surrounding the ghosts, which really made them pop. But I just used plain black and it was not as good looking. So I just sewed spider webs on the black material with white thread -- and it turned out great, don't you think? I didn't know I could do that....Thanks for giving me the confidence to try something like this. The people on this board are amazing!

    This seems to be an early duplicate of my posting.
