Top it Off with Witchy Stitchy

Welcome
to

the first day of the

Witchy Stitchy Blog Hop.

I'm happy to kick things off with

my

little

Witchy Stitchy Witchy.

I love Halloween, but no one does Halloween projects like Carol at Just Let Me Quilt.

She is perfect to lead us on this spooky journey.

Thank you, Carol, for inviting me to join this super fun blog hop!

My stitching for the hop is pulling double duty.

You see,

I am an Island Batik Ambassador for 2019

and every month there is an ambassador challenge.

The Island Batik Ambassador Challenge

this month is

"Top it Off"

with

either a holiday table topper or runner that includes applique.

So I combined the hop and challenge and today I present to you,

Stitchy Witchy

my Halloween table runner.

Look at all the little helpers I had to stitch up my 

12" x 42" table runner.

I created the pattern with Electric Quilt. 

Next, I pieced the pumpkin blocks with

Island Batik Foundation fabrics.

Then the stitching witches were 

appliqued with Island Batik stash fabrics 

and

my favorite fabric adhesive,

 HeatnBond EZ Print Lite 

(no tracing!)

I stitched around my little witches with Aurifil 50 wt thread #4225 with a blanket stitch and the quilting is meandering leaves.  The rest is a meandering stitch with Aurifil 50 wt #2150.

Hobbs provided the Ambassadors with batting

and I chose to use the Heirloom Natural Cotton Batting for the Witchy Stitchy table runner.

I had so much fun choosing the 

Witchy Stitchy outfits

with the bright and colorful

Island Batik fabrics.

Each witch is colored differently and each one is stitching with a line of thread

that was triple stitched by machine.
