I have quite the history of signing up for sew-alongs and Block-of-the-Month (BOM) programs and either losing interest or wanting to spend my time on projects that are more joy-producing for me. But I never lost interest in the Halloween BOM designed by Sam Hunter, Leila Gardunia, and Kristy Lea. See the post announcing the BOM Here. The blocks were all well-designed using my favorite piecing method: Foundation Paper Piecing also known as FPP. I was able to personally drop the quilt top and backing off to Cara at Sew Colorado Quilting in Denver as I took a quick trip to Colorado with a friend in early September. It was so wonderful to finally meet Cara in person. Here is a photo she took of Frightful Fun after quilting but before she returned it to me for trimming and binding. The Haunted House was the final block of the BOM, and I had fun fussy cutting small Halloween images to fit in the windows.

The photo below shows the quilt top before I delivered it to Cara. I added two extra blocks not included in the BOM (to be made into pillows) and some Halloween fabric for a runner to also have quilted with the cobweb motif. I cut those extras off before binding it with a favorite Halloween print, Double, Double, Toil and Trouble, available at this Etsy shop.

The finished quilt is good size—68” x 79”. My bestie, Mary, is going to put it on her bed in early October. Below are a couple close-ups that show the cobweb quilting done with medium grey thread.

I will be linking up YvonneQuilting Jetgirl when she opens the linky party for Favorite Finish September 2025.
