My Quilt Parade

This is the second scrappy Halloween quilt I started in October 2015 intending to give this one to DGD#3 for Halloween.  Life got in the way  and the project was put away along with the other Halloween quilt for DGD#2. Fast forward four years later to October 2019, and I decided it was time to finish this quilt too. The pattern for this is from Slash Your Stash Quilts by Claudia Plett and is titled Decisions, Decisions .  It measures 80" x 80" and is a larger throw size.  November 2019

I started this scrappy Halloween quilt in October 2015 with the intention of gifting it to my granddaughter for Halloween. I'd already made 40 of the star blocks and eventually sewed the top together. Then life got in the way and the project was put away. After a four-year hiatus, in October 2019, I decided it was time to finish the quilt. The pattern for this is from American Patchwork & Quilting, October 2014.  It is called Happy Halloween .  I used 20 of the star blocks and used a 4 x 5 layout.  It measures 53" x 62" and is a nice throw-size. (I have enough leftover blocks to make a 2nd quilt for me!) DGD#2 no longer lives with me, and she is no longer 15 years old but I think she will still love this quilt.  I will just have to go visit her in Kentucky to give it to her! November 2019 UPDATE : June 2020 - DGD#2 had planned a visit in April but thanks to the COVID-19 pandemic, no one was visiting anyone soon.   As the months pass...
