The last two names were put together but I ended up having to adjust Pagel because having the drop-down "g" made the name an inch taller than the other names, meaning when I added them to the quilt top the sides would not be equal. Luckily, it was a fairly quick fix. Having only made free-pieced letters once before, I'm pretty slow at this, but love the result. Next time I'll work smarter along the way and be a lot faster at it!
All the witches now have their names and I'm overall really pleased with the way they look. I'll add another small strip of the black for a final border--luckily I do have just enough of the Dimples fabric left--and then move on to the backing, quilting and binding. Only a week left until the end of the month deadline and I'd really like to have both quilts finished! See more design walls on Judy's Patchwork Times.

Nothing like a deadline to get us moving. I'm not a fan of Halloween, but I like your witch-y quilt. Making the Word Play letters is fun!
Cute witchy quilt!
Where did you find the Witch pattern this is really cute would make a great table topper!
Cool witch quilt.
Love the names! Your free piecing is terrific and I think I shall never tire of seeing them.

So cute, Annie! You'll have it done and ready to display for Halloween!

I love the free pieced names, they add so much interest to the quilt. I have Tanya's book but haven't been brave enough (or had the time) to try it yet.
I Love Love everything about this quilt. Especially the names!! Good for you, can't wait to see it all quilted and "made-up!"
Love love love the witches... And the words...everything in fact.
Love your witchy names. They make fun borders. Are we really that close to the end of the month? I still need to finish the borders for my Sept. UFO.
