Welcome to the Wicked Blog Hop, we want to say thanks to Wendy and Madam Samm ( the head sorcerers ) for get us all in the Halloween Spirit with our blocks and other goodies that we conjured up in the last little while.
I just know the hop will be a spook- tacular success . I can smell the cauldrons cooking

Robin - That Other Blog
Sew now it is on with my post and what I would like to share with you all out there
Next the blocks that I had conjured up and now to make them up out of fabric. Seeing that this was leading to more and I could not decide on just one sew I whipped up 4 - 10 1/2 in blocks.
I could not leave them unfinished sew I added stripped sashings and 9 patch corner stones followed with a wonderful Boo fabric for the finial border.
Not sure but I think I will call it Beware of things that go "Bump in the Night"
I am working on getting it quilted before Halloween and hopefully before my turn with Wicked.
my
a little pack of squares from Moda's Harvest Moon
(2 1/2") long tweezers for your FMQ
and a Halloween mug mat
( I shrunk my Candle mat pattern for the mug mat )
And now for the last part of my post I would love to give a little treat to a lucky follower of the hop, leave me a comment with what your favorite part of Halloween is...... now my favorite part is seeing the kids come to the door all dressed in their favorite costumes. I sure hope the weather holds for them again this year. At this point the kids are not snow lucky......
I'll make the draw on all hallows eve........ Oct. 31.....
Now off you go and check out the other sites to see what else was conjured up for you to view.

ReplyDeleteHi!!! Wicked cute blocks and I love them all put together!!!!
ReplyDeleteOooh I love all four of your blocks and that disappearing 9 patch is fabulous too. What a wonderful giveaway too - my favourite thing about halloween is just the general spookiness of it all and looking out on All Hallows Eve to see if I really can spy a witch on a broomstick!
ReplyDeleteMy favourite part of Halloween is the kids faces when they get more candy! Lovely projects!!
ReplyDeleteLike you, I love seeing all the kids dressed up. I along with a few other mothers, walk with our kids. It's so much, being out there checking out all the house decorations and even a few parents dressed up with their children. My husband stays home to give out the candy and also so that the doorbell doesn't drive our Collie crazy. Thanks for giving us a peek at your lovely creations, I especially love the BOO fabric. ;-> Toni Anne
ReplyDeleteWow you conjured up some super wicked blocks, love the quilt that you've made with them and I like disappearing 9 patch too. My favourite part of halloween is seeing the children all dressed up and so excited :) No snow here yet to spoil the hauntings.
ReplyDeleteI love your spooky blocks and the little quilt you made up looks great. I would love to be included in the treat give away. My favourite part of Halloween is the great excuse to make pumpkin treats.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite part of Halloween is seeing the costumes people think up. Such creativity! I've always enjoyed scary movies which are plentiful this time of year. Scary movies, not just bloody and gory. I like the thrill not the gross out. You ghost block is my favorite! So cute!
ReplyDeleteLefuntz@cox.net
Your blocks look great! I love the ghost. Nice and wicked! Love the bats too! That wall hanging will scare a lot of people. Well done! We don't celebrate Halloween in The Netherlands, but judging just from the this hop I would say that it is the FUN that I like the most!
ReplyDeleteGreat blocks! I especially like the ghost and the gravestone!
ReplyDeleteNow my children are grown up I too like to see the children at the door all dressed up!
I don't really do halloween any more. We don't even get any trick or treaters here. You blocks however are great. I love how you put them all together.
ReplyDeleteWhat a "wicked" lil quilt! Love your setting and border fabric! Barbie in NC
ReplyDeleteLOVE your quilt! My favorite part of Halloween is playing the witch while handing out candy... lol

ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing

Our Main Street in the downtown area closes to cars and opens to the wee witches and goblins. Store owners give away treats as the little ones walk up and down Then there is a little parade with ribbons for the participants.
ReplyDeleteI also seeing the little ones when they come to the door. I have my treats in big baskets and the tiny one are wide eyed when I let them pick. Surprises me how often the raisins are picked over candy.
ReplyDeleteLove Halloween so much I got married on that day!
ReplyDeleteReally wicked woek, I enjoy watching my grandchildre dress up for the fun
ReplyDeleteMy favorite part is dressing up and playing witch for my granddaughter. This year however the theme is Red Riding Hood and I get to play the grandma.
ReplyDeleteWicked job on all the blocks.You did a great job. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeletevery scary blocks...sew scary I was afraid not to show him wellllll you know...wink...
ReplyDeleteMy favorite part of Halloween is watchinf my four grandchildren getting so excited. They are so cute dressed up. Your quilt is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteAnnette - I am amazed at your creativity! Every one of these blocks is a winner but that skeleton face is amazing. I love the bats with their two color bodies, the goofy smile on the jack-o-lantern and the smiling ghost! My favorite part of Halloween is the children - how happy they all are! blessings, marlene
ReplyDeleteYour designs are so wickedly cute!
ReplyDeleteYour hanging is really cute. The skeleton is especially scary! Thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteAhhh first commenter! Because I am such an early bird. My favorite part of Halloween is seeing the kids get excited about what they are going to wear. They always have such crazy ideas! Thanks. Vivian
ReplyDeleteOh Annette your blocks are wickedly wonderful and so spooktacular , you really went all out with your creations .I also love to see the little ones dressed in their costumes , we don't get many kiddies these past few years , not like when we lived in town . Thanks for sharing even more of your wonderful talent!!
ReplyDeleteMy best part of Halloween is decorating the house and front lawn. The lawn has the RIP stones, jack-o-lanterns and ghosts in the tree with spooky music. Every room in the downstairs has Halloween decorations from a filament Witch's hat to a cross stitched door hanging. I LOVE HALLOWEEN. Maybe because it's the first holiday with Thanksgiving and Christmas following!! Have a GHOULISH day!!
ReplyDeleteDorothy
Love your project, Annette! My favorite part of Halloween is seeing the kiddos all dressed up! They are all so proud of their costumes! It is such fun!
ReplyDeleteGreat blocks! My favorite is the ghost/tombstone. Your "death eater" block (reminds me of the death eaters from Harry Potter)is quite wicked.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on being one of the chosen.
Favorite part of Halloween is giving out the candy to neighborhood kids.(We get to dress up ourselves and the house and play spooky music..great fun!)
Next to the cute blocks you made an impressive skull block, together it makes a fun quilt. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteVery cute wallhanging and I love the mug rug. My favorite part of Halloween is the weather. I love the cooler weather and all the colors that come with it. Thanks for the giveaway.
ReplyDeleteI love all your blocks. My favorite part is like you seeing the kids dressed up. It used to be to make my son costumes; but he is grown now and lives far away in grad. school.
ReplyDeleteYour D9P and your blocks are all just wonderful! Thank you for sharing with us!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite part of Halloween is seeing how excited my husband gets over handing out candy! (I am a Christmas person, but seeing his joy is priceless!)
I love your D9P, I made one recently and fell in love with the pattern. That bat block is pretty fun and the skeleton is wickedly creepy! My favorite part is watching the excitement of my own four kids, ages 2-7, as they pick out their costumes and get ready for the festive fun. Thanks for sharing and the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteI love to see all the little kids dressed up in their costumes. A close second would be all of the decorating.
ReplyDeleteNice blocks. Thanks for sharing them.
ReplyDeleteWickedly Awesome. Love how it turned out! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteLove your blocks. :) My favorites things are the month, the kids in their costumes, and KitKats. :)
ReplyDeleteI love your blocks. The ghost is really cute. I really love that ceramic pumpkin on your D9P. That's a pretty photo and can be used through Thanksgiving, too.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite part of Halloween is the smell, the candy, the mystery. I love it all and I love your wall hanging!
ReplyDeleteBeth
My favorite part now is watching the local Spook Parade. When I was younger it was the candy! Like your blocks, and thanks for the giveaway.
ReplyDeleteFavorite part of Halloween. Seeing my grandchildren's photo on their blog. Can't wait for this years! My six year old granddaughter is going as a Shakespearean character. Would you believe she has already memorized a soliloquy at age six? My grandson is going as a drum major. He is intrigued with the marching band from the college where my son teaches. He loves, loves, loves his drum!
ReplyDeleteYour blocks are wonderful. Can't decide which one I like best!
Oooo, such frighteningly wicked blocks! Your creepy guy deserved to make top two on Madame Samm's list. He is awesome! I love dressing up for Halloween.
ReplyDeleteI've had such fun reading everyone's blogs this week. Love yours! And would love to have that little Halloween mug rug holding my coffee cup! Oh - I do enjoy seeing all the kids dressed up and the parents standing back with big smiles on their faces.
ReplyDeleteLove your blocks and D9P! Sewing for Halloween is sooooo much fun!
ReplyDeleteSuch cute blocks! I love little kids in their halloween costumes--so much fun. Here, they have "Boo at the zoo" and the kids go trick or treating among the animals--so much fun to watch,
ReplyDeleteAnnette-Your blocks are "spook-tacular" and the way you arranged them into the quilt is dazzling! While I enjoy seeing all the little ones dress up, I must confess that I enjoyed showing "The Legend of Sleepy Hallow," to my students, many of whom hat never seen it before. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteAnnette- Your blocks are spook-tacular and the way you arranged them into a quilt with the sashing and cornerstones is dazzling!

I like your bats block, but the shadow that you created behind the RIP in the ghost one is awesome. I like dressing up and seeing others dressed up, but I now live in Greece and they don't celebrate Halloween, so sad.

ReplyDeleteReally really cute, or should I say spooky is more appropriate. Now that we have kidlets, I love watching them enjoy all the Halloween fun the most.
ReplyDeleteYour blocks are so wonderful. I like seeing the children come dressed, we only get around 10, our rural community is getting smaller. This year I think it is going to be rain and wind with hurricane Sandy coming at us. Thanks for the give away and I really like your blog page so will become a follower. Happy halloween.
ReplyDeleteEnjoyed your blocks. Love the DP9. We used to sit in the driveway an ask for tricks in order to get a treat. It was so much fun. Thanks for the inspiration.
ReplyDeleteYour blocks are darling and I love how you put them all together.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite part is having all of the grandchildren come for dinner and trick or treating.
I really like the "boo" border you put with your blocks - really eye catching!
ReplyDeleteI love giving out the candy - and 99% of the time, I'm totally dressed up doing it - really surprises the kids (And the parents lurking at the end of the drive way!)
love dressing up for Halloween [lust like the kids!] and of course left over candy!

ReplyDeleteI love to carve pumpkins and enjoy the kids and costumes!! Thanks for sharing in the blog hop!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite part of Halloween is the eeriness on that night. With pumpkins glowing from house to house and seeing the creativity many people do to "scare" and tickle imaginations of the trick or treaters. Bwahh hahahaha!
ReplyDeleteYour Bump in the night looks smashing! No pun intended.
Jane
I love your blocks!! They are gorgeous!! Thanks for sharing it with us!!!

Great blocks! Love those pumpkin eyes. I love decorating my house for Halloween/Thanksgiving. I keep everything up till I swap it out for Christmas. :)
ReplyDeleteThe last few years my favorite thing about Halloween is I get time alone! My children are with friends, I don't get children at my house, and I get to do what I want!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite part of Halloween is seeing the kids with their costumes and I love to see how excited they get with a pencil or more candy.
ReplyDeleteI make up really special treat bags for the kids that come to my house. I love to see them in their costumes. I don't give candy, I do pencils, cups, games, tattoos, erasers and stuff like that. The parents appreciate the no candy part.
ReplyDeleteYour blocks are wicked great! I love decorating my house for Halloween best. It is so much fun.
ReplyDeleteOh, wow, spooky fun blocks and I love your fabric choices! Perfect for Halloween.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you. I enjoy greeting our guests at the door and giving out the treats! Love your blocks.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite thing is going trick or treating with my kids. We don't live somewhere that the people can visit on Halloween, so we go into town and trick or treat there. I love their excitement and I love seeing everyone else out and having fun.
ReplyDeleteI'm with you! I love watching the grandkids get all dressed up and pretending to guess who they are. Thanks for the giveaway.
