Now, I need to crawl around the floor (ha!) and get the next quilt read to go on the frames. It always takes longer than I want it too.
The Tyrannosaurus stays up all year round.
Have a happy and safe Halloween.

I love how your All Around Town finished up!! Boy there sure is a whole lot of appliqueing on this one!! Beautiful job hugs, Julierose
Blitzen stars is a beautiful finish! Looks like your neighbors are in Halloween overdrive. There will be nothing here except the halloween blue moon!
All Around the Town is really fun, Robin.
Blitzen Stars looks very festive. I can't imagine quilting that in 2 months. Any large quilt I have hand quilted has taken over a year--sometimes 2 or 3 (or more).
That is quite the Halloween display. I put three electric pumpkins on my porch tonight--that was it. But we live in the country and everyone goes to the trunk-or-treat at the church. We had no trick-or-treaters.
The pumpkin tree in your neighbor's yard is a very good idea. We don't see many Halloween/fall decorations here in the yards. And even less this year. I miss that.
I am looking forward to seeing the border fabric you were waiting on.
glad to hear you bought the "right" fabric for your border - that quilt is so lovely, it would have been a shame not to have the border that will be perfect for it. Can't wait to see it with the border that "completes" your wonderful quilt!
Your All Around the Town is such a beautiful finish, Robin. I know you have borders yet, but the center is just fabulous! I especially like quilts where the orientation of blocks with images puts the bottom of the block on the outside edge of a quilt. It makes sense to me: when on a bed, the sides hang down and the images are right-side up.
I continue to be amazed at how many people put up Halloween decorations these days, and expensive ones, at that. When I was a kid we might see pumpkins/jack-o-lanterns on steps but that was about it. Halloween is my least favorite holiday, though I loved how they celebrated October 31 and November 1 in El Salvador.
Blitzen is beautiful. I love the green/aqua sashing.
Two beautiful quilts!!
Beautiful finishes, love All Around town! the Halloween decorations are over the top wonderful!
