I've got a few minutes before we start making some Magic Cookie Bars for a junior high school band lunch tomorrow, so I'll quickly show you these pictures of my most recent finish.
My friend Jen made one of these cute mini quilts a few weeks ago and I thought they were adorable!
A sweet little pumpkin, Boo Crew fabric, what's not to love?
I had a great time putting it together using the kit from Sew Lux Fabrics along with their free tutorial.
A zig zag stitch or a blanket stitch were their suggestions to attach the stem, but I chose to use raw edge applique.
A smaller regular straight stitch close to the edge of the stem was all it needed.
I don't think I've ever tried that applique method before, so that little stem was the perfect place to start!
The text fabrics from this line are my favorite!
Especially the multi-colored one on the back.
Jen's ideas for the quilting really worked well on the quilt, so that's how I did mine too.
Some straight line quilting with a little pumpkin detail finished up this mini quilt nicely.
Now it's done and ready to enjoy for Halloween!
Cute!!!!! Love it!
ReplyDeleteThat's so cute! I keep saying I want to make a pumpkin quilt! Maybe I'd better do that before I use up all of my orange fabric! :0)

So adorable!! I love that line. I may need to see if my lqs still has some!
ReplyDeleteA perfect project for Halloween. Well done and happy cooking.
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute finish! I love the boo crew fabric and I don't think I really appreciated the text prints until you mentioned them. Does sweetwater ever design fabric that isn't totally awesome?
