Quilt sandwich stage for #1. This one I have offered to my daughter Elaine--she has a new house to decorate, after all! It needs quilting and binding.
The second quilt top is complete as far as sewing is concerned, but the lady witches need their eyebrows and eyelashes. I had misplaced--in the mess that is my sewing room--the eyebrow stencil I had used, but found it again. The backing and binding strips are ready to sew but I haven't touched my machine for two days since we have been busy painting. Both quilts I am determined to finish ASAP!
Judy picked #6 for the October UFO, which is a bit ironic for me since I was going to switch any other number picked for #6! I had already decided that October is going to be a "quilting only" month, since I have quite a stack of sandwiches and tops that need to be quilted, like this one, which has been waiting for a year or more.
I'm considering trying some feathers on this one since it is already pretty busy both front and back and less likely to show my amateurish attempts. I won these blocks from Nicole's (Sister's Choice Quilts) giveaway several years ago and just love the colors and prints. Way past time for this to be come a "Real Quilt", don't you agree?

Your "Witches" quilts are so fun!
Pick #6 looks like it will be a good place to attempt feathers. I will be cheering you on from the sidelines--I'm still too chicken to put any on a real quilt. I need to practice them a whole lot more.
Agreed! I look forward to following your progress this month and hope to be inspired :)
You made great progress last month on your witches. Good luck with all your "quiting" this month.
Now how did I miss you were making TWO of them??
I double love them!
