Finish in time for Halloween

I can't be too early with my Halloween finish - there is stuff in the shops already.... This was a mystery class at Rocheberie earlier this year. It was 10" squares and strips. I made one in Halloween fabric as Mark says - when it comes to my stash - I have a Halloween problem. I quilted it with a panto called "Along Came A Spider".

Fortunate finish

Fortunately, I have finished a quilt which means the Godzilla photo can move down the screen. I made this top a couple of years ago but have just quilted it and done the binding. I "cut the bits out" using the log cabin die from Accuquilt. I've just been cutting another one out from my scrap bin in an attempt to use some stash.....

I keep a small bucket on the floor in my sewing room by the ironing board. I drop loose bits of thread in it and then empty it into the bin every so often. Today, it contained this:
Liz, I'm surprised you didn't hear my shreek from across town........ Mark says I have a definite "spider shreek" - closely followed by me shouting his name. This spider is definitely destined for eviction - as soon as Mark gets home.

I am keeping busy....

I have put together my Bonnie Hunter Leader and Ender project - this is Rick Rack Nines and is HUGE..... Mark had to stand on a chair in the garden and he is 6'2".
Ironing it will be a mammoth task, never mind quilting it.
