While I visited my parents the opportunity to attend one of the Quilters by the Bay monthly meetings was held. Of course I attended and to my luck won the BOM. I am playing around with the layout right now. I have some scraps from a long ago project I helped my Mom with so what do you think about using them? The pattern is called Trick or Treat by Diane Harris.There were two identical blocks and two that just didn't work well for the more Halloween project I was looking to make. The three on the bottom will make it to another project somewhere down the road; perhaps Christmas themed.So I made these two new ones. The first pulls in the more "tan" background and the purple candy. The second pulls in the green background with the purple candy. I am pleased with the blocks, but now what about the sashing and borders? Do you think I need something different or am I good to go?
I also won a door prize. I always liked the cats in the vegetables designs that Story Quilts put together some years back called Carden Patch Cats. As you can see this one is Podcats, Block Eight of Helene Knott's series. The fabric came along with the win and likely intended for the background. I'll probably use it when this pattern comes to the sewing table.
I worked on more "Mom" projects, but did find time to decide how I wanted to store for showing off some of my quilts with this new piece of furniture from Wayfair. Trust me there are so many others in my home that won't be seen unless you open up not one, but two closets...stand back if you do =^.^=
