Meet Mrs. Spidey!

My dear bee friend, Suzanne, gave me a cool Halloween mat kit last year, but I never got it made!

It came with all the strips needed to make the mat!

I love the fabrics included in the kit!

I used my own scraps for the eyes and added some fangs!

I used 2 layers of jumbo rickrack for the legs.

I bound it with solid black fabric.

I had some corners of the strip pieced fabric leftover after cutting out the spider body…

And you know I just can’t throw it out…

So, I cut out a little tiny spider body, sewed it together, filled it with sand… added some little leftover pieces of rickrack…and buttons…

So, my Mrs. Spidey has a sweet baby pin cushion!!

I CAN’T WAIT for HALLOWEEN!!  :-)

So, what are you sewing on for Halloween? 

 

Halloween Tablerunner

I bought this cute tablerunner kit for Halloween from the Clotilde catalog.  I am soooo READY for the summer heat to give way to the crisp cooler fall days!  Aren’t you?

  I love the panel that came in it!!

I’ve never done prairie points, so I thought this would be a good way to learn how to make/use them!

Making the prairie points was easy and fun! Fold a square twice and that’s it!!

Don’t you just love the witchy shoes??
