"If the Shoe Fits"

Finished this Halloween Wall hanging in time to put it away for next Year.
Still needs the quilting and buttons on the shoes.  Next Year!

Halloween Costume



I took some time out from quilting this past month because 26 year old Son wanted me to make him a Halloween Costume.
He wanted to be Benjamin Franklin




He thought he was doing me a favor by buying this pattern online.
It might be "Reconstructing History" but but they were trying to do it without very good instructions.
This pattern was a real challenge to work with.
No markings,no diagrams....


So Here I Go!




Tracing the size I needed.


Oh yes, don't forget the lining


Ready to start Sewing...
Finished in time for Halloween
He was very happy with it.
I was very happy with it and very happy it was done.

So far it is call the "Red Chair"Quilt.
Working on more blocks to this cute quilt.

Some Pieced but most applique.
