The work break, that I’m becoming accustomed to, was interrupted yesterday for some necessary fine tuning. Putting to bed my Spring fabric line finally and it feels good. I’ll offer one hint, it involves beans but not from a beanstalk!
…is Carin! Names went into the hat,
and the winning name was pulled at seven A.M. this morning.
So here is your Halloween booty Carin. I’ll be sending out today and should arrive in time for your favorite holiday. Thank you everyone for participating in my “Hair-raising Halloween” fabric giveaway. I really enjoyed hearing from you and discovering some of your sites and facebook pages. Eventually, I look forward to getting around to a personal thanks to each one of you. Stay tuned, I have many more illustrations, inspiration and FABRIC to give away in the future.

Fall is my absolute favorite season and winter is a close second. So, several months coming right up that I fully enjoy! Beginning yesterday, our weather finally caught up with the season. It was a brisk and cloudy day with a perfect weather week lying ahead! Almost time to scout out those pumpkins, eh?
Still working on our “Hair Raising Halloween” pillows…..
…and catching up on fabric cutting. I hate to admit how far behind I’m running but I’ve owed fabric to a few folks and finally, it’s on it’s way. Feels good….
..and getting back on the walking trail this morning.
Don’t you just love a rainy day, keeping tucked away, and cozy inside? That’s what we have here following a noisy night. I woke up at 2:30am to the loudest clash of thunder I’ve ever heard and literally felt all the way to my bones! I’m somewhat eager to check out all the nearby trees this morning to be sure all are still standing.
A good day to begin working on a project, eh? Maybe a “Hair-raising Halloween” pillow?
Speaking of fall…….
Last April I had the privilege of working with Fons & Porter’s “Love of Quilting” on a couple of Halloween projects. Featured in their Sept./ Oct. issue, which just hit news stands, is my “Hair-Raising Halloween” fabric and projects. Kits for the quilt are available through F & P and fabric is in quilt shops now for both of these fun home/party decorations. Fabric-Quilting Treasures. Quilter-Elizabeth Cechettini.
The banner is an easy, no sew project that even a non quilter like me was able to construct. Not a bit scary, well a little, but I hope you’ll still try one. Step by step instructions are included in the issue. I can’t wait to put both of these vintage inspired items to good use for the tiny goblin guests this fall season.
