I’m hoping that if I do simple straight line quilting I might be able to give it more definition. It’s for a friend’s grandchild, but there’s still time to make another and see which I prefer.

@Sheilago  ... Stop stressing just quilt it simply and leave it at that.

You see imperfections; that could have been this and why didnt I do that???

They will see an unexpected, unique and beautiful gift that will become a family heirloom !!!

@Sakar ... What a simple lil video tut .. lovely!

@LeilaMay  ... Are you still after those blues and greens ??? I have oodles of spares from the wedding quilt.

One lonely lil barn bat block ... 6 1/2"

Hes's pieced (YAY) and I used gash fabrics, for this practice block.
The background fabric was a stark white so I tea dyed it ... just in case he make the grade and remains in the finished quilt.

 :devil:  Trees part of the fabric @Celia

So King Tut is now stitched in place and the block is complete, it will measure 18 1/2", the largest single block, so will have only about an inch around the edge of the furthest coffin ...



So all well and good on the ring of coffins score (tho I am still looking for occupants if you have any that need interring Gals, just need enough fabric around the face to wrap around the freezer paper window template comfortably )

But yesterday, Puzzler came over and we had a playday ... She bought a project of hers and I dillydallied with another spider, starting an entirely new quilt ...(Yes really! and Yes, I know!) but decided on building my haunted house block ..... I even for a brief mad second or three looked at the PP destructions before sanity regained its grip and off I went!

Ta Dah! My haunted house ... measuring about 9 1/2" x 12 1/2"
