Technically It's Still Fall

 Yes, that's right 

technically it's still Fall until

December 22nd.

As much as I didn't really want to 

be sewing on Halloween fabrics 

while listening to Christmas music,

I dug deep and finally finished

The Thimblecreek Quilt Shop's 

Halloween Mystery Quilt.

After making 551 four patch units

 came the job of sewing the pieced lattice

to the 50 blocks.

With the blocks set on point

there were candy corn triangle units to make. 

It required a lot of pinning but,

 finally it was all put together

I decided to add one outer border

just to visually contain all those pieces.

It's finished at 64" X 75".

And guess what?  

I used what I had and

made a nice dent in the Halloween stash.

My deadline was the winter solstice

and it looks like I made it with a couple days

to spare. 

I knew if I put this away, it would be hard

to pull back out to finish.

It was a challenging quilt to piece

 

 requiring a very accurate 1/4" seam.

It's not exact, but close enough for me.

But, truthfully, I'm ready for 

something different.

Time to see what's next on the list.

 for the new year.

Until Next Time-
