Someone asked why it made so much money? IMHO.... It's a witch. And even those who don't like witches softened when they saw this one. (Myself included).
Halloween in terms of retail, is bigger than Christmas. Sad but true. No one involved in making this quilt made a dime. All proceeds went to the Quilt Guild. We donated it, and they sold raffle tickets. I think they could have sold more tickets, if they had advertised a little. It was only shown 4 times, at 2 guild meetings and 2 days at the quilt guild show. The show had a relatively small turnout. Guild members purchased the bulk of the raffle tickets. I didn't buy or sell any tickets. I don't know what I'd do with a witch quilt. It's too cute to use. I would never give it to a child and I wouldn't hang it on my walls. I'm just not a witch fan.

That is so cute, and you went the extra mile with that outstanding border. Was it hard to make make? I have an applique pattern from p3 that I just love, but I haven't had the nerve to try it yet.

I just love it! Sure wish I could've gotten a raffle ticket for it.

wraez 10-20-2010 03:56 PM

This is one of my favorites, so so cute!

Usually I am not a fan for SBS, but love this interpretation. I would love this on my wall for Halloween, the grandkids would appreciate it too. Guess I'll have to rethink my SBS attitude!

warm quilt hugs, sue in CA

sewingtree 10-20-2010 04:08 PM
