Black Cat Crossing Blog Hop

I can tell you, I squealed with delight when I saw these fabulous fabrics, that Maywood Studio came out with for Halloween. The colors are so warm and wonderful. They are truly  just incredible, and lets face it,  nothing gets me more excited than Halloween. Plug your ears all you Moose out there, you didn't hear that from me!  :-)


Here's my tribute to "Black Cat Crossing" quilt.
I knew when I saw these fabrics, they needed to be focal points.
Of course they had to be surrounded by Friendship Stars.
To remind me of all the friends I have made in this 
 blogging community, that I love so much.

 
Each star has a button in the center.
And the border is finished off with prairie points!

Now I just have to share...
(you know I share the good the bad and the ugly here)
I had this all pieced, quilted, bound, and was in the process of stitching on all the little buttons...

 

When "Horrors" I found a problem.
Do you see it?

You know I love you all, but I was not about to unbind, unquilt and unstitch this for you!
And I couldn't live with it.


No... I got my thoughts together and came up with a solution.
Yes... a patch! 
If there is anything we quilters are, it's resourceful.
 Am I right?

 Now you see it, now you don't!
:-)

 

I wanted a table runner for my Halloween table.
After a search online for coloring pages, I knew I was onto something.


It was the expression on the moon that sold me!

 

 I used a high loft batting. I love the dimension it gives a project.


 Backing up a bit.
All those friendship stars from my quilt above, are made with 1 1/2" squares.
I like to make those half square triangles a bit bigger and trim them down.
Here is my pile of scrap. I was not going to throw it away!
Oh no, not this fabric!
What to do, What to do???


 You've seen me make thread fabric before...
Well, this made perfect "scrap fabric" fabric!
:-)

 

Which turned itself into a fun little mini quiltie!
Ahhh, the power of scraps or shards, I guess I should say.
LOL!!


Maywood Studios...
You folks hit the nail on the head. Black Cat Crossing is the greatest!
I love, love, love it, and can't thank you enough for sponsoring this hop!
A hop that well...just wouldn't be the same without our delightfully Wicked Wendy at the helm, and of course our incredible Madame Samm, who has put her heart and soul into making this blog and all of us, the best community around!  (whew that might be the longest sentence yet)  You girls are just incredible.


Thanks so much for visiting me today.
I have just one other little thing to share.


This little 14" table topper was made from the last of the scraps of my precious
Black Cat Crossing fabric.

Guess what?

It can be yours!
Leave me a comment and I will pick my winner on Mon Oct 27.
I know it's a bit early, but you'll have it for Halloween then.
:-)


Also be sure you visit my fellow bloggers today.
They have cooked up some incredible projects to share!

    I would have left it - so many tinies, no one would have noticed - just a design adjustment that you could have blamed on the black cat. You just are so inspirational - one goodie after the next. I have to try the 'shard' fabric making - just love that look.

    I have eye strain from trying to find it! I have also used the patch cover it up when I made a color boo boo when paper piecing. All of your projects scream "look out for that black cat". Thank you for sharing your wonderful work.

    Oh, my goodness, what a terrific quilt - at first I thought all those woven friendship stars were from a fussy-cut print! That is a LOT of little HSTs, my friend! And that little boo-boo? No one would ever notice until you mentioned something, then it took a long time to find it! It's all good - love the prairie points too. Fabulous runners, and your scrap-pile "made" fabric is terrific. Inspiring!

    I can't imagine using the trimmings for a piece of fabric. Very resourceful! Waste not, want not... as they say!!! I'd love a chance at having a mini quilt with this fun fabric. Thanks for sowing all the fun stuff. I couldn't see a boo boo on the Friendship Stars, just saying.

    First of all it took me FOREVER to find you mistake - I probably would have ignored it and dared others to find it. :) Second, I love the quilt but the Crossing table runner has to be the cutest thing ever! Third, what? You made fabric with those scraps? Oh. My. Goodness. Fourth, I'm pretty sure that moon face would have suckered me in too. And fifth, I bet that table topper is my cat that got lost recently, so just go ahead and send it home. :) blessings, marlene

    I would never have noticed the boo boo without you pointing it out. The quilt is just wonderful! I agree with you.... that fabric with the softer Halloween tones makes such lovely projects.

A great fix and a simple solution for your boo-boo. Well done. I love the table runner, too. The black cats and the moon are awesome. I love your use of scraps also.

    Wow, I'm really impressed with the scrap remake. All your items are really nice though. The table runner would look really nice on my table with my wall hanging. I wish i could see the texture of the back side of the hall hanging. Thanks for sharing.

    Well I am late again, but at least I am here. You have had a fun time with this hop and the lovely fabrics. Very impressive results, too.
    Your quilt is wonderful. Took me ages to work out where the hiccup was!! That's sad! But I love the way you patched it. Very smart thinking. Gorgeous quilting you did there!!
    The table runner is perfect too. It really shows off the fabrics. I agree about the expression on the moon.
    And waste not, want not when it comes to your trimmings. The mini is lovely. As is the second one.
    Good luck to all in the draw.
    Great quilts, Joan.

    All of your projects are gorgeous! I spent WAY too much time trying to spy the problem you encountered and failed. The spider webs on your table runner make it my favorite, but I love all of your work. The scrap fabric is fabulous!

    Love the quilt but that Crossing runner is just spooktaculer. Could not find the flaw in the quilt and a wonderful use of scraps. Lovely projecta.

    I am wicked late posting comments, but kiddies have birthday and we are organizing parties after parties, which means baking and cooking whole nights and days long.....
    Your projects are so gorgeous, I love the table runner so much (again), for me, you are the table runner queen LOL

    Well....how strange...perhaps the spooks are early...I was commenting away....and then it just went "poof" and disappeared!
    So quick re-cap...AWESOME projects...Love the "string fabric" (those little bits are about the only thing I throw away...and now...I don't have to...thank you...I will never be de-cluttered...LOL)....and just fyi...didn't see the 'oops'...if you say it's fixed I trust ya! So glad I'm sneaking a little "me" time to catch up with the hop......and I was in desperate need of a "moose" fix! xox
