One Scary Pumpkin - Gremlins, Goblins, and Ghouls Oh My! Blog Hop

 Welcome

to the Sticks

and

 the second day of the

Gremlins, Goblins, and Ghouls Oh My! Blog Hop.

I've created One Scary Pumpkin

or 2 or 3...

Joan at MooseStash Quilting invited bloggers to dust off their brooms and come out and "fly"!

Or share some great Halloween-inspired projects.

Thanks, Joan, for inviting me!

I have way too many Halloween scraps - I tend to purchase more every year.

So, I broke out all the Halloween Fabrics and put together twenty 10" blocks

with random-sized scraps.

Then I stitched and flipped the four corners of the pumpkin, added some borders, and appliqued a stem and a leaf.

I had planned to make this quilt larger, but as usual, my time ran out.

I had made more blocks than I used in the quilt, so I cut some pumpkin sections out of the blocks.

I don't want any more orphan blocks than are necessary...

Now I have 2 spooky accent pumpkins to go with the quilt.

And a whole lot fewer Halloween fabric scraps.

Check out the others that are breaking out their brooms today:

 About those blog hops Carol, Joan, and I host...we're changing it up a bit!

We've decided to call it Sew It - Show It.

We've been challenging our blogger friends each month and they never disappoint.

With a new name, Sew It-Show It, we'll be looking for twenty bloggers each month

who want to meet our challenges and share their creations. 

It won't be much different than our previous blog hops, but we've found that it's hard

for some people to visit so many blogs in one day. So...it will be just four days with five

bloggers each day. That means (sadly) that we won't have unlimited openings anymore.

But, we may have a few more surprises.

It all begins in January and I will be hosting the first Sew It-Show It in 2023.

If you are reading this, think of shades of blue for January.

I'll be posting about it after the

Gremlins, Goblins, and Ghouls Oh My! Blog Hop

 is over so watch for it here at Creatin' in the Sticks.

Did you know that Carol, Joan, and I host a block of the month every year on Facebook?

We are seriously working our fingers to the bone right now

and

we couldn't be more excited!!!!

We'd love to have you join us on our Cackling Stitches Facebook page!

The group shares Halloween Love all year long.

Whew!

That is a lot of information!

I'll just be on my way now...

have a Happy Halloween!
