    Default Halloween 10 Minute Quilts

    Hi, I would like to have someone post a photo of their Halloween 10 minute block quilt. I tried looking on pinterest and all over the web, but cannot find a halloween 10 minute block quilt. I was getting so frustrated looking and going round and round ant thought of this board and thought you might be able to help. There are awesome quilters on this board.

    Thanks,

    Lin

    Is this the 10 minute block you're thinking of? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZbTHlGGKMPM
    It could be done in any fabrics...

    Hi I finally made one and here it is, but I really would like to see what other folks have done, maybe I am jumping the gun a little because Halloween is still a few weeks from now.

    I think a fussy cut center square of a pumpkin or Halloween figure would look nice with a solid background. You can make the center square bigger if you wanted.

    I like the idea of the fussy cut center too. In fact, it's my turn to lead/demo a quilt in your guild in Oct. so I think I'll steal this idea. As usual the inspriation I receive from the board is endless. Thanks for posting the question and the example.

    Just be aware that if your motif is directional that you'll probably want to do the fussy cut "on point" because of how it will turn in the center location.
