    Your so right jessica! Thanks for being being so welcoming.

    Hi jennifer ... I love your choices! You chose two of the cutiest blocks! I hope you share them as you go.

    Kat ... Of course you can do fussy cut blocks. They are really nice in the mix of blocks.

    I was thinking the same thing... I want to do this also... but have never done applique.... does it have to be applique or can I make a block with fussy cut fabrics?

    Also for my applique block, what do you ladies think of the witches legs...click the link.

    Both of these blocks are 12 inchers, but I do not care about sizes I just want to make these!
    ooohhhh -- i like these already! I can't wait to see how you put your own personal touch on them.

    Oh I just might have to get in on this since I can use my embroidery machine.Did a skull this morning for another project as a sample. Lynnie and moose love what you have created. Need to think abouut this. Since a newbie at quilting not sure I would be able to quilt something just yet but love Halloween.
