Boos & Ghouls Quilt-a-long Progress

I'm making progress on the quilt-a-long that is being hosted at Bryan House Quilts...Monday the cutting instructions were posted.

I spent a fun half hour or so at my local quilt shop sorting through their 6" scrap bin, pulling out all the black, gray and white scraps that I could find...at 7 for $1, it's hard to get too much! 

Then last night I started cutting away...and now...



The cutting is done! Two Boos and one Ghoul, in pieces! 

I'm ready for next Monday when the stitching begins!

New Adventures

Well, hello!

I've been keeping busy with lots of things, one of which is a new skill I'm learning, quilting! I just finished a class at my local quilt shop, and have a completed project, yeah!

As I was looking around for my next project, I came across an invitation for a Quilt-a-long with Bryan House Quilts to make these adorable ghost mini-quilts!


How cute are they? I plan to make two boy ghosts and one girl, representing my children. Then, as they move on, they can have a cute decoration for Halloween of their own...if I can give them up, that is!

I look forward to practicing my newfound skills, and ending up with cute decor!
