Warning picture overload!
Last fall I discovered colored pencils for embroidery work. Crabtree Hill studios.
For some reason Halloween prints appealed to me. I made one, two, three, and they just keep coming.
So, I decided to make them into a quilt.
I had just purchased this vintage bolt of polished cotton, 36 inches wide, and original price was .39 cents a yard. I paid $10 for the bolt.
This sheen made it perfect for a Halloween quilt.
I am a hand quilter at heart; however I was just a little leery of the old fabric. I thought machine quilting would be a better option. Especially since I had a lot of big spaces!
My friend Becky, whom I met 13 years ago, does absolutely amazing work. Here’s when I first met her.
So, in the mail it went to Liberty, Missouri!
In less than 10 days I had it back! Her quilting is unbelievable!
She told me there’s 22 hours of machine stitching in this!
So just for your viewing pleasure, I will stop talking and let you examine her magic in every block.
