Trick or Treat


smell my feet


(couldn't resist - LOL)



The center of the Halloween quilt is done - woohoo!!! The borders have been cut and are waiting to be added - first thing on tomorrow's list. I failed to mention in my last post that the pattern is called Ruffles by The Pattern Basket. It's called Ruffles because you add a ruffle out by the binding - there will be no ruffles on this quilt. LOL



Tomorrow's list includes borders, bindings and backings. :-)
And then.....
I plan to play with some Moda Candy Bars
(dark and milk chocolate)


I think Moda introduced these cuties approximately two years ago.

Each box contains 4 collections of 2 1/2" x 5" fabric strips and they are super cute.

I'd completely forgotten about them until last week when Miss Rosie's Quilt Co introduced the new Little Bites patterns. Little Bites quilts are made with 2 1/2" x 2 1/2" squares called Moda Candy.

Since I don't have any Moda Candy I'm going to make my own - teehee!

It's going to be my TA DA moment - cut the Moda Candy Bars in half and now I have Moda Candy (squares).

I'll bet there are more Moda Candy Bars hidden deep in a drawer in your sewing room. LOL

I appreciate that you've popped in to visit - come again soon.

Have a pieceful day.

In Friendship!

Note for Luverlie - I received your kind comment and questions however you're set for 'no reply' so I can't respond. And, apparently your blog is private, as well. You'll find my e-mail address in my profile page - feel free to send me and e-mail and I'll be happy to respond. :-)

No chocolate bars here, but I do love that quilt! Don't even think it looks Halloweenie. Have fun with your TA DA candy!

Oh I love it. I may look into getting the pattern. But yours in the Halloween fabrics is FAB.

Thanks for the laugh--my kids loved to do that line!

The quilt is turning out great, even ruffleless it will be a smash hit.

I have a couple of those tiny candies but you are clever to cut your bigger bars down. Enjoy!
