I was trying to come up with some ideas for interesting inchie effects and remembered an old trick where you could make a portrait where the eyes would seem to follow you around the room. I just had to find out if I could make it work on a small scale & "voila", here is the result:

Doing a bit of random surfing, I stumbled upon Pumpkin Patch Primitives Quilt Shoppe, where I found out about Brenda's Halloween Giveaway! It is a surprise giveaway ... so enter if you dare. 
My latest project is a Halloween quilt. It is my first "big" quilt, so I am keeping it simple - squares of Halloween prints, machine joined and then quilted by hand. I have just about finished joining the squares into strips. As you can see, I had the strips laid out over the top of the sofa, when they were "sleep tested" by a friendly neighborhood black cat. She really isn't my cat ... she just pops in for a visit now & then. Anyhow, what is a Halloween quilt without a black cat on it?
