Ahh, it is officially summer and with the heat outside this is the perfect time of year to get a jump start on some of your holiday projects. This week we are featuring Halloween! One of the cutest Halloween collections ever is Seen on Halloween by Maywood Studios. Even Sue who isn't much of a Halloween fabric fan likes it!

Spooks on Parade

This is a fun new fat quarter pattern from Grizzly Gulch Gallery designed to feature Seen on Halloween fabric collection. The ghosts are applied with fused raw edge applique, making this a fast and easy quilt you can have made and quilted long before Halloween arrives.  The quilt measures 56" x 68". Our kit features glow in the dark fairy frosts for the ghosts, making this quilt even more fun for your little goblins! Click on the quilt above to order the Spooks on Parade.
