At the KCMQG November meeting last Thursday, we had a Holiday Swap. The rules were you had to bring a "fabric infused" holiday item. It didn't matter what holiday you chose and it had to be wrapped.
I made a mini quilt I titled "Trick? or Treat?" It measures 12"x36" and is all machine quilted by me.
See the little people? They are debating whether there will be a treat waiting for them at this spooky house on top of the giant hill. They're a little scared and think it's probably not a treat, but a trick. It must be a trick waiting because who in their right mind will walk up this really steep hill to a scary house? What do you think? Trick? or Treat?
Oh, and just in case you can't tell, they're in costume. That's a fairy, a princess, and a devil.
This the back. Cute fabric, eh? I got it for 75% off at Hancock's. Sweet!
Here's the label I made for the back. Can you tell it's a tombstone?
Shea, the KCMQG Vice President and writer of the blog, Empty Bobbins ended up with it. I ended up bringing home the gift that Shea brought. It's this cute little bunting that says Ho Ho Ho.
I have it taped to the walls of my studio in the corner above my ironing board. I think it might end up on the fireplace when we get a little bit closer to Christmas.
Thanks, Shea! I really love this little thing! It is adorable and I can't wait to hang it up somewhere where everyone can enjoy it!

I think it's funny that we ended up with each other's swap stuff!
Next Halloween's decor at our house will be extra snazzy with your piece of art. :)
When I saw this from across the room it just took my breath away. You are so creative!
