Sandpat,
Love your blocks and hope I get your's or we will have to do a side swap. I ran into a problem with the haunted house fabric as didnt pass quality control this morning. Noticed some small holes this morning which would be hidden with backing but not acceptable to me for swapping. So went and bought different fabrics and ill be trying those. Those that asked for side swaps on those if that does not matter to you ten I have two in that fabric if it does then just wait and I will post teh new fabric once I see which one(s) pass.
Red Garnet I did find that word Halloween fabric at Ben Franklin's today and bought a yd as well as some fabric now for what I think will be my center panel. Will try and get a pic up later.
Hopefully by tommorow after quilt class I will have details on my side swap so wont keep you gals in suspense.

Ok will put one away for you, as I don't either but just want people to be happy. Will figure out the crows tommorow as those will be limited and have a list of those who asked in order last night and will see if can accomodate everyone.

O M G sandpat ... Are you kidding me??? Those bats and witches are ADORABLE! I love the fat bodies and the skinny legs. It made me laugh out loud when I saw them.
I sometimes have to use computer paper and cut it away to keep the tunneling from happening. I have a few stablizers, but, I really need to get the whole gambit to choose from when I embroider. The stick on type works pretty dang good and I like it too. I have read that you need to adjust your bottom tension with some designs. But, I hate doing that.
I am sure you are more experianced than I am.... I don't know why I am posting this. Sheesh!!
I love those Blocks! Great job!
