Quilting Sunday, Halloween Decorations and Giveaways!

Where to begin...It was a cold and stormy night; no, no, no...that's Snoopy's line...anyway it was a rather rainy Sunday all day long.  I was happily inside cutting on the Studio cutter at Sew Inspired Quilts!  This free once a month class is just the best.  Today I was able to cut out the pieces for three of the Christmas Tree wallhanging and most of the pieces for the Fall Star quilt, my star quilt will be made from all fall fabrics with various types of leaves in the fabric.  There were several of us in class and we were sharing, so I will return before the next class to complete my cutting.  I will show you two of the patterns, though my fabric choices are totally different!  Remember to double click on the photos to enlarge, that is on any photos in my blog.



 
 
 
On the next note, we have been decorating for Halloween--my family loves the villages and my DS and DD love the lighted ones.  We have set up our two villages, and various other room of decorations.  DH will not allow the outside to be decorated before October--so by next weekend we will be working outside! 

Lastly, but not least for all of your who love Halloween and decorations, there are two great giveaways to take a look at:  http://oldfarmhousegathering.blogspot.com/ for the great gift basket of Halloween



and then off to:  http://firecrackerkid.blogspot.com/ for another great giveaway of a Primitive One-of-a-Kind Rolling Pin dough Bowl Keep!


Well, I think that is enough excitement for one day and enough to keep everyone busy!  Until tomorrow, quiltingly yours,
