    Default Hocuspocusville Top- What a Job

    My top is completed except for finale border, which may be black. I use the fabricc in the center as I just loved it and thought it went so well. All the trees are beaded. Not sure if you can see this or not. Thanks for looking.

    I love it! I also loved that steampunk-ish fabric, great way to use it!

    Oh I love it where did you get the buildings from or did you draw them? It fantastic. What about a faux border before the black in red.

    Thank you, it's a pattern by Crab-apple hill. You have to trace all patterns onto the fabric. This one is for April and I'm making another in purple for myself. Will also be beaded.

    Your quilt is so unique - just love that center fabric and your idea for the houses. I like stop borders and would put a very narrow (maybe 1/4") strip of chocolate just before your intended black. Now I have to go find some of that fabric.
