I finally got my Mr. Chillingsworth quilt finished! It's crazy and a lot going on, but I LOVE him. ♥
I used the little houses pattern in Simplify to make the haunted houses. This little girl facing the Zombie Apocalypse is my favorite. ;)
She's right above this dastardly pair...

And, for my love of Owls, here is the Owl House. Complete with mini orange pom-poms.
This ghostly fabric was perfect for the back. And it's so soft! I love it too.
Well, heck, why not make some pillows too!? I made the hexagon pillow from this tutorial. It was fun and a great way to practice my triangle making skills (er, or lack thereof). I echo quilted it in orange for the finishing touch. The All Hallows' Eve black pillow was quilted too, in cross hatching.
I honestly think this years Halloween fabric selection has been the best so far! I have loved every collection, as you can tell, I have combined a lot of them. ;) These were so fun to make.
Halloween is my favorite holiday. This is the first Halloween quilt (complete with throw pillows) that I've made to celebrate All Hallows' Eve! About time!

I decided I didn't like Mr. Chillingsworth laying on the couch, waiting to become a potential victim of being sat upon. So, a quick run to Target, picked up a curtain rod and voila! I know have a Quilt wall display! Yay! Special thanks to Robot Husband for doing the dirty work of hanging it. ;)

Very cool! I agree that these are the best Halloween fabrics to come out in a long time and I haven't gotten any because I think it isn't practical to do something just for Halloween instead of fall. But now, you got me rethinking things. Great work...I love it!
ReplyDeleteThat first pic on the couch is perfect - love how you have the skeleton "sitting" there :)
ReplyDeleteOMG! Seriously, where do I even start - these are spooktacular (haha!) and so much fun. Halloween is such a great holiday - out with Xmas, ON with Halloween I say. Who doesn't love getting costumes ready (so design basically haha) and eating chocolate. Love the scary zombie couple!
ReplyDeleteWow - awesome collection of quilted Halloween decor. I especially love the little houses on your Mr. Chillingsworth quilt.
ReplyDeletethis is so so fun! Absolutely brilliant!
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love this - I really like all the little spooky additions to the houses and the cushions are brilliant!
ReplyDeleteVery cute! This is without a doubt the most charming Halloween quilt I have ever seen. I love the "guy" in the middle...Well done!
ReplyDeleteI've been debating on whether I should get the Mr. Chillingsworth panel and I think you just made up my mind. Now if only I can find the black fabrics with the Halloween words on it.
ReplyDeleteThis is so fun! Love your Halloween quilt and the pillows.
ReplyDeleteOh, this is perfect! What a spooktacular display! The quilt is gorgeous and the pillows are the icing on the cake.
ReplyDeleteI really like your quilt, and shamefully would like to be a copy cat, what size border did you put on your Mister?
ReplyDeleteLOVE LOVE LOVE. I got this panel last year and haven't made it yet. You are inspiring me with your cute houses! He looks great up on the wall. Wonderful pillows too.
