Judith, I love the little ghost.... or zombie, or whatever he is.... totally cute. I keep saying I want to do a halloween quilt but haven't done one yet. We never get trick-or-treaters so maybe it's just going to be for me.
Okay, I have one last border side to do on my quilt. Then, I need to go get some batting. I don't keep any up here at the cabin.... not that much room here.... I'll snap a picture of the top before I go so you all can give me suggestions on a quilting pattern for it.

I adore Halloween. My actual birthday would have been sometime around Halloween if I hadn't been in such a hurry to get her. (10-5) My kids are grown. And my only grandson so far lives in NC. But, I'm making a Halloween quilt anyway. There's a swap going on here on the board with Halloween blocks if you want to look into it. That is what I'm making my blocks for.

I really love this quilt! My brother is a musician in Southern California. I have a guitar themed OBW in the queue to finish for him for Christmas.

Finished my MIL's quilt! I posted pics in the Pictures section, since I wasn't sure if I would break rules by posting photos twice. Trying to be a good girl! :-)
I'm going to do some housekeeping, and then, since my morning was freed up, I plan to straighten and organize my sewing room, finish a curtain for the window in there, and get things ready for my next slew of projects. I'll try to post photos of the room this evening or tomorrow.

Okay, I finished the laundry and 2 of these little babies. I am making postcards for my grandson. I'm a bit slow. I'm only on B. But, this is only the 3rd and 4th one I've made. I think I have the technique down now. When I say I've finished 2, I am making 2 of each postcard. One for my Grandbaby and 1 to put away in case my son ever blesses us with grandbabies. Now, I'm trying to decide if I'm going to make my next set of swap blocks or a doll quilt. I have to see what fabric I have going. Hoping to get a good start on one of these today. And, finish them up tomorrow.
