Sometimes you just have to have fun and play with those holiday prints!  I wish I had some more of the fun halloween prints out there , skeletons, witches, etc but I worked with what I had and of course added a few repros in there (you know I just had to!) and today I will sew this little quilt together.

Do you like Halloween?  would you like to make a little quilt like mine?
I cut a few extra kits for gifts and one to use as a giveaway....
so let me know if you would like to win, I will pick a winner in a few days

Love your mix of fabrics. I'm so lacking in Halloween prints and would surely love to win a kit. Thanks for chance!

Marina Brito de Campos said...

I just love Halloween. But, in my country we do'nt celebrate. So I put pumpkins in my back yard, just for the sake of it, and the colours of course. Love to win your give away.

What a great idea. I'm not much of a halloween'er. ;) but I enjoy the fun quilts folks make with the theme. It's a fantastically fun holiday for playing!

Patti said...

I love your little halloween quilt. Fall is my favorite time of year, and I enjoy decorating for halloween. I would love to win a kit. Thanks for a chance.

Me and My Stitches said...

I just love these little tumblers! I have ZERO Halloween prints, looks like I better go shopping (unless I win, of course). I like how you put in the repros - they fit right in!

Fiesta said...

Kathy, you know I am loving it. Thank you for the chance to win one of your kits

Victoria Findlay Wolfe said...

cute! I'm a big xmas nut... I do have a halloween set of blocks I started two years ago, and sadly, they are still in the un finished stage... ;-(
love the tumblers!

Bobby said...

I really enjoy all the Halloween prints. It would be great to win one of your kits. Happy quilting.

Angie said...

How adorable---I would LOVE to win your kit. :)

regan said...

I never pay much attention to Halloween prints, but these are GORGEOUS! I guess I'm going to have to start looking at those racks again! :o) And adding those repros in it......at first I thought it was ALL repro......this is wonderful! Thanks for the chance!

Ann Champion said...

What a beautiful mix of fabrics! The colors of Autumn are absolutely my favorites. :)

MJinMichigan said...

I'd love to win one of your kits! I recently realized I don't have any quilts made from fall colors or Halloween fabrics. Right now I'm working on the QuiltMania cover quilt made from Jo Morton fabrics in cheddars, rust and black. I'd also like to make a Halloween quilt with pumpkins, skeletons, candy corn, etc. and have collected some fabric but haven't started yet. Your tumbler quilt would be a perfect addition.

Linda in CT said...

I'm beginning to like the cutsie Halloween things, not so much the gory, bloody stuff that's out there. I would love the chance to win this. I made a cute Halloween lap top last year and thought it would be good to finish it, but I can't seem to find it. Spooky...
Thanks for the giveaway.

Nancy said...

I know my two year old grand daughter would love one of these. I was surprised at how few halloween fabrics I have. So winning a kit would be fabulous. Thanks for the chance.

Barbara B said...

Yes, yes, yes, I would love to win this!

Janet O. said...

This is so cute, Kathie. But you needn't put my name in the pot. My Halloween colors are still on the cutting table from my other minis--I'll just grab my template and cut my own. : )
Thanks for the inspiration!

Jans said...

Alstublieft ja.
Please Yes.
I would love to win these beautifull fabrics.
Love the quilt you are going to make of the fabrics.
Greetings from Holland in autumn.

Donna~~ said...

I love the fall, which makes me wonder why I have no fall quilts. Would love to change that with your quilt--it captures the color and warm of the season nicely! (You have probably started me on new Halloween/fall fabric collecting! :)

Juicybear said...

Love your quilt en surely love halloween and i would really like to win a kit.

Anne said...

Of course I would like to win! The halloween and/or fall colours are the ones I always gravitate to, and the tumbler pattern is one that is on my to-do list. Sounds to me like this is a win-win opportunity! Thanks for your generosity.

SewWhatsNew said...

OH my! My first Halloween was when I moved to the US to go to college. It has been my favorite ever since. I would love to win your kit. It is lovely. Thanks for the chance.

Lori said...

Super cute! I had a heck of a time sewing the red, white and blue one together, so I'll pass on the kit.

janice said...

I'd love to win a kit. It's a super cute idea.

Kathryn said...

I have zero, zip Halloween fabric, so I'd love to win some and make something for my sister and her kids. They love the holiday.

Bea said...

Cute little quilt. Please count me in. Happy quilting

Heartsdesire said...

I would love to win your sweet little Halloween quilt kit. Perfect for fall decorating. Thanks so much for this generous giveaway.

Amy said...

Your fabric picks for this quilt are wonderful! Fun, but not scary, and not too many so you can use it all Fall. I would love to win the kit.

I love the way you oined the traditional design with the holiday prints! I would love to win.

Jackie said...

What a cute quilt! I love Halloween - my favorite part is seeing all the kids dressed up. What a generous giveaway - I'd love a chance to win!

Darlene said...

OMG, OMG, OMG, Kathie, that's one sweet quilt. I was chatting with Paulette (Sweet p) about the fact that I've never made a tumbler quilt but it's been on my some day list forever. I'd be over the moon if I won a kit from you.

I've never been one for Halloween themed quilts (projects) but I made a throw earlier this month and fell in love. I'd enjoy making another.

Keeping my fingers seriously crossed.

Mary said...

Your little quilt is going to be awesome. I love Halloween and would be thrilled to win a kit. Thanks for the chance.

Terry said...

What a sweet little quilt! I love anything made with fall colors! Thanks for the chance to win a kit for this! :0)

Janet said...

Your fabrics are so warm and lovely. This will be a beautiful quilt to display for fall. I'd love to make one too :0)

Teresa said...

Cute, cute, CUTE!! I just adore fall/Halloween fabric, so I collect it. The tumbler project is a great way to feature them! I have pieces cut from my Halloween bin for TWO quilts, and have not sewn them together yet (one has been cut out for 2 years, LOL). So, don't include me in the draw...I'm too embarrassed that I have not finished the 2 I have started!

In stitches,
Teresa :o)

Jan said...

Halloween is my favorite holiday - it is my Dad's birthday, so we always celebrated, and decorated for the day. Tumblers are a great idea & the repros included are "a given", right?!

AnnieO said...

Tumblers never cease to cause a smile! Love the Halloween prints and warm autumn colors, Kathie! Thanks for the chance to win a kit. I know you'll enjoy putting your little quilt together :)

Sue said...

That's gonna be a cute quilt. You don't have to enter me. Halloween is something I've never gotten into. But that was sure nice of you to put together some kits for those who do :)

Paula Hammer said...

I love all your little Tumbler quilts, and this one is so cute. I'd love to win it to add to my fall decor.

Michelle said...

Those are such great colors! My collection of Halloween prints doesn't go together nearly that well.

Cathi said...

A kit like yours would be so neat!

Gayle said...

How generous of you! I'd love to win a kit for this darling quilt!

Carol said...

What a great idea! I need a Hallowe'en quilt and I've never made a tumbler quilt - at least not yet.

Karen said...

You know I would - tumblers are so cute!!!

Dixie said...

Very cute - always love your tumbler quilts! Would be fun to try one! Thanks for the entry, Kathie.

Thalia said...

I'd love to win a kit! Those tumblers look like candy corn bits someone has bitten the point off of. Somebody must have done a candy corn quilt by now, right?

Do please put my name in the hat. Thank you!

be*mused jan said...

We went to Amish country yesterday to purchase our mums and I came home with a stack of Halloween-y fabrics with which to make some small quilts. I have never made anything in these seasonal colors but am feeling it this fall!
Your little tumblers are so charming and what a nice selection of fabrics you've put together! However, since I have just accumulated my new stash, please don't include me in the drawing.

Mandy Currie said...

Hello Kathie, what a thoughtful giveaway for the season. I would love to receive a kit, I can see my nephews and nieces, would really appreciate that. Kind regards Mandy Currie (mandycurrie@googlemail.com)

Carrie P. said...

sweet little quilt so far. I do like those fabrics and would love to win your giveaway.

Colleen said...

Your little tumbler is going to be wonderful. I cannot wait to see it complete. The first thing I thought when I saw it was that my daughter would love it and I should make her one. Winning one of your kits would make that easier.

Nancy said...

It would be great to make a Halloween quilt and have been wanting to try the tumblers; so would be very happy to win that free kit. Hubby is out of work for health reasons, so I have committed to only use what I have on hand.
Can't wait to see it together.

Sally said...

love Halloween and I'd love to win a kit from you--what size are your tumblers? I have a wonderful charm pack of Halloween prints from several years ago that I might use too!!

Ellen in Oregon said...

I just love the look of your little Fall/Halloween quilt. It is nice to see that you added the reproduction prints with the novelty prints. I think all the fabrics flow really well together. I am probably one of the few quilters that does not have any Halloween fabric in my hoard. Winning your cute kit would help me live that down. Thanks for making an extra kit to give away.

Jeanne Gwin said...

That is so cute and you know I just starting cutting one like that today. Hmmm, great minds and all that. But hey, I am still up to win a kit too. I always have someone that is needing a gift of love from me. Thanks
