A few years back I saw a cute Halloween quilt that I wanted to
recreate for my own home. This is my
version of that quilt. I would love to
give credit to the original designer, but I honestly can’t remember where I saw
this quilt. So, if anyone knows leave me
a message and I’ll provide a link to the original design. This Halloween quilt was fun and really easy
to make. Simply decide how big you want
your quilt and then use squares and half triangle squares to make the ghost and
pumpkin. *Make sure your squares and half square triangles are the same
size.
Row 1: Is all blue squares the same size
Row 2: have one blue
square then two blue and white half square triangles to make the top of the ghost
head
Row 3: Is one blue square,
and three white squares
Row 4: Is one blue and white half square triangle,
one white and orange half square triangle, one orange triangle, one orange and
white half square triangle
Row 5: Is one blue and
white half square triangle, one white and orange half square triangle. One orange triangle and one orange and white
half square triangle
I bordered the quilt with green fabric.
For the face on the ghost and the pumpkin I traced the design on
the back of the black fabric and cut out two pieces. I sewed them together with right sides
facing, then flipped and ironed the pieces.
I hand sewed the pieces closed. I
stitched them to the quilt using the stitch in a ditch method. Next, using black DMC floss I stitched a spider web in the
upper corner and a spider in coming from the ghost.
