My next quilt is going to be my first Halloween Quilt.

The fabric I’m using is ….

Lost & Found Halloween Fat Quarter Bundle
My Mind’s Eye for Riley Blake Designs

And I purchased the Bundle at Fat Quarter Shop.  If you click on the name above it will take you to their online store.

I’m using 7 Fat Quarters and a White Jelly Roll.

The pattern will be the Brick Quilt and I’ll make it exactly as the one I shared in April 2015  … the Ambleside Quilt.  (It will not be the same quilt in my Bricks Quilt Along.)

If I make the quilt without any changes …. here’s the details ….

• Quilt measures:  47 x 72
• Fabric needed:  7 Fat Quarters & White Jelly Roll + backing and binding fabric

• 7 rectangles/blocks across –  6 rectangles/blocks down.
• 7 patterns of fabric – you need 6 rectangles of each pattern.

• Each Rectangle measures:  5 x 10
• Attach a white 2-1/2 x 5 rectangle to the bottom of each 5 x 10 rectangle.
• 20 Sashing Strips (I used White Jelly Roll Strips)

• Attach a 2-1/2 x 5 white strip to the bottom of each rectangle (except bottom row – that will be a long sashing strip)
• If you can find 8 Fat Quarters you like … feel free to make it wider (I may do this myself).

Baby Quilt Along

I’m sorry I left you hanging with the Baby Quilt!!  I will try to get it wrapped up in the next two weeks.

If I told you all the things that we’ve been dealing with in the past two months you would not believe me!  I’ll just say I somehow have managed to keep my head above water and I thank God!  Plus I know that things could be worse so I choose to focus on the positive!

On top of all the medical stuff  – I had some business goals I was reaching for by year end,  which was yesterday (Sept 30th).  I’m happy to say I reached my goal of promoting to Platinum and I’m happy with my year end numbers.  My goal for 2016 was to help my team promote and I have even bigger plans for them in 2017!!

Couch to Quilt

I received my Missouri Star Quilt Co 2016 Holiday Catalog yesterday and found something interesting!!!  It’s called Couch to Quilt and they have a box that includes everything to make your first quilt …. it even includes the longarm quilting!    I ordered it today to try it out.  Click here for all the details.

See ya!
