My patterns for the cats, crows and rat also came from the Dollar Tree. I think they are black cutouts to put in your windows during Halloween, but they were great patterns made from card stock. The world is full of templates!

All the applique is done with a blanket stitch. I'm really hooked on appliqueing. You want something on your quilt, you cut it out and poof it is on your quilt. Love it!
