It's no secret that I absolutely love the Peanuts comic strip and characters. So when I saw this quilt kit at my local quilt shop, I just had to have it. But as is usual, I did not complete it in time for halloween. I did make the quilt top in time, but I never made the quilt back.
Of course by the time I went back to the quilt shop, there was no more Peanuts Great Pumpkin fabric left. So I bought some black Kona. That seemed appropriate, especially since there is black Kona between the cartoon inspired blocks.
Since halloween was over and done with by the time I considered quilting this, I set it aside. And now that it is September, it's time to resurrect it and get it done. Surprisingly, I finished quilting it, attached the binding and hand sewed the binding on all in one afternoon.
Here it is, in time for Halloween 2014! Yay!
Love the black - it's a darling quilt! How fun to sew on something you love. I still have Nancy Drew fabric to make a quilt - just for me. ;)
ReplyDeleteGood afternoon. Do you by chance have another one of these quilts. Halloween was my sons favorite holiday and he passed away 2 years ago. Wanted to have something in my parlor that reminds me of him. If yes, how big is it and what is the price. Thank you.
