As You Witch By: Regina Arlauckas, New York, USA

Close the Windows at Halloween By: Linda Hicks, Texas, USA
The “Attic Window” block pattern reminded me of the open spaces/big skies of my recent reunion trip to Texas. Thinking the results too garish, I happily found an exotic transparent Halloween fabric. I placed it atop to float and ripple like ghosts coming in the windows…a memento mori!

Halloween Fun! By: Vesuviusmama, Virginia, USA
This was my son Jason’s first quilt, made when he was just 6 years old. He designed and cut the applique, and maneuvered the quilt around under the machine while I pressed the presser foot to sew each piece down and to sew on the binding. He tied the quilt using buttons that he bought online.
