I went a little crazy at JoAnns on Halloween fabrics. I've made two purses that turned out well. Sorry I can't post them. (We have dial-up so the pics don't load for some reason.) I have about 8 different fabrics with 1/4 yd to 2 1/2 yd lengths. What do you suggest I make that would be quick and easy? I would need to finish something and get it in the mail within in a month probably. Anxious to hear your suggestions.

How about placemats, tablerunners, pot holders, a small wallhanging or a doorhanging. Candlemat or coasters. Lots of small gift items ideas!

I made 2 small wall hanging for my grandsons. One still needs quilting but here they are for inspiration.

I am making Halloween pillowcases for the grandkids. They love them.

These all sound good, along with the pillow cases for something really fast!

These are soooo cute. I need to do a log cabin pattern. Everyone keeps telling me how versatile it is, and from your second picture, I can tell that's very accurate.

AnnaK: I love your pumpkins. Did you have a pattern or just know how to put them together? I've been looking at my magazines for some instructions for all the suggestions. Better try to make a decision soon.
