Halloween Jelly Roll


Last year I purchased this Halloween Jelly Roll.  At least I think it was last year, but maybe it was the year before!  This is my favorite of all Halloween design lines that I have purchased.  I bought several yards of this design line, as many of the pieces as I could find locally.  I have made two or three Halloween quilts with this design line.  They are all fun, fun, fun.

Can you tell that Halloween is one of my favorite holidays?  I make at least one Halloween quilt every year.  I usually give them away.  Christmas is another of my favorite holidays.  Between Halloween and Christmas, I am not sure which one is #1 for me.  Halloween may be a thread ahead of Christmas.

When our children were young and dressed up for Halloween, it was so fun to walk with them around the neighborhood while they were trick or treating.  I cannot wait until the grandbabies are old enough to take trick or treating.  Mom and Dad always dress them up in darling costumes and bring them by our house.  Even though they really do not know what it is all about yet, they know that candy is involved with this activity! 

Are you making any holiday quilts this season?

Happy Haunting

And it has purple in it too. I love the combination of the orange and purple.

Wonderful quilt! And very fun!

I love Halloween too, in case you hadn't noticed. *wink*

Halloween fabrics are sooo enticing - I end up buying some every year. I have enough for probably 10 quilts! I'll bet you have at least that much too, but it sounds like you're ahead of me in the "making quilts" department. I need to get busy!

The purple gives the quilt a real punch.

Nice job on the quilt. I am sort of working on a holiday quilt, or really a non-holiday. Every year when the Christmas decorations come down, the house looks so blah. So i am working on a Winter wall hanging to go over the mantel...the NYB quilt on my blog.

I'm not making holiday quilts - or any quilts - but I love what you are doing.
