Well, I am so happy to finally post my Ghastlies creations! I so loved participating in this event--thank you Madame Samm for all of your organization and hard work; I know that it was no easy feat! The first item is a hot cup sleeve! Love the orange:
There is nothing better than having a hot cup of coffee, latte, or hot chocolate with the Ghastlie cat! Love the cat!
Next: To take your lunch to work (Deli Lunch Tote):
With plenty of pockets for your utensils, napkin, etc! Love this pattern:
The only problem has been everyone wants one now!
Last but not least, one of my favorite quilt patterns (The Big EZ)--makes up a wonderful double/queen size quilt in no time! I love all the Ghastlie fabric, so I incorporated several pieces of various The Ghastlie fabrics into this one:
I am not all that pleased with the photographs--will have to do some more during the day light hours--but would that be Ghastlie?
One last picture with the lunch tote and cup together:
Now the Ghastlie quilt can fly off to the longarm quilter and the remainder of the fabric can tuck away until later when the urge rises up by the full crisp Fall moon to create some more Ghastlie treasures!
Thank you all for stopping by! Happy quilting!
To tell the truth, I'm not an avid Ghastlie lover, but I love your ghastly makes!! The coffee/hot drink sleeve is totally cool-- as is the tote and the quilt. I'm a native CT person (Connectikite is the correct word, I suppose) and in New Haven-- for years--they had York Square Cinema (there were rooms for 2 films)-- don't know if you ever were there, but I still remember the Ghastly wallpaper they had; it was so interesting to look at and try to identify all the classic actors. Sadly, they closed over a decade ago. But I bet that wallpaper is a hot commodity these days! Have a ghastly evening-- but tomorrow its back to Total Eclipse!! I'm waaaaay behind!! (Don't tell jackie-- I did spend a few hours on the prep work today, though :0)
ReplyDeleteNice Ghastlie treasures!

Hi Barb:
ReplyDeleteSo glad you are able to post again. I missed you and worried about you and your family. It is so good to see your Ghastlie's post. I love all the Ghastlie's posts. Everyone's creations were wonderful. Love the paper piecing also. Can't wait to see the end results. It sounds like a great class. Wish I was there, too!
