My 2015 Sew my Stash all begins with
GHASTLIES and the
Moda Modern Building Blocks pattern
Moda Modern Building Blocks pattern
You can buy a pattern from many vendors on line for around $12.00 - just google it.
Kits are also available...but many are using their own fabrics.
For a peek at the Moda pattern design and assembly instructions
you can find a PDF here
Block 1 - 36" square
Block 2 - 36" block
Side by side...in my sewing room...
This kinda puts the size into a HUGE perspective!
Block 1 and 2 - that's 6 feet of fabulous GHASTLIES!
eeeeekkkkkk!
Block 3 - 30" square
but has 93 pieces "POINTY" pieces
This one had me shaking in my shoes
but I just took my time, fixed my mistakes, redid some seams
til it finally came together.
I can't decide on the outside round of color,
so I will wait...finish a few more blocks that go around it
and then decide. The fabric will have to talk to me!
If you are on Instagram check out hashtag

to see some fantastic fabric choices for this pattern
other than just solids.
I'm not an all solid color kinda girl!
And just sew I made sure I wouldn't run out of Ghastlies

ReplyDeleteI like, I really like. And this is certainly tempting me but I don't have that much Ghastlies and I won't buy more. :) I'll just have to watch to see what you create.
ReplyDeleteWow those make big squares. Good luck with your quilt.
ReplyDeleteLove this! I love a good halloween fabric and this is a great way to use it. Can't wait to see it all come together.
