Look at what my mom made me! A Halloween quilt:
Was so excited when I opened it. My mom started making quilts recently and she's been teasing me about one in the works. What a great mom I have
Oh hey, it even has spider web stitching! See it?:
Thought you'd all get a kick out of it. Usually you see these cutsie Halloween fabrics but not this. She told me that the blood splatter fabric is made by a lady who specializes in unique fabrics. So cool! In case you were wondering, yes I get my crafting skills from her. As long as I could remember she's been making stuff and learned all kinds of crafts with her as I grew up.
The design on the back is my favorite. Spiders and lace. Now that's a combination for the ages...

How wonderful! I have been setting aside several pieces of fabric to make a quilt. I found a wonderful toile that upon closer inspection is actually not people but skeletons. I am going to team it up with some black fabric print maybe add some red, but I have not found a pattern I want to use.

That is INCREDIBLE!! I seriously, soooper doooper love that!
And Gouliet.... Aaaprn (my wife) and I have been talking about those really cool table runner designs that you've made. Did you make those from scratch, or is there a pattern available? We really really like those too.
That killer quilt though....... WOW I love that. I would pay top dollar for that thing. AWESOME.

So glad you all like it too. She did good!
Here's a picture of her with my dad helping me last year with the haunt. Not sure if you remember but she was the one wielding the cattle prod and chasing the kids out of the haunt at the end. She's a hoot!:

Love it! My sister is a professional quilter and a few years ago I put together a Halloween quilt top and she quilted it for me. She also used the spider web pattern with bats along the border. I love the fabrics used in yours, especially the backing - beautifully creepy!

What a cool gift. Many compliments to your mom for her hard work
There's something wrong with me chemically, something wrong with me inherently.
