Halloween starts here....

Its officially Halloween...its now October! Ive got all my stuff out to decorate the house! Even Big G joined in the fun!

I have a halloween quilt that I made from fabric I collected whilst in California, USA. Its old now it was made in 1998, I call it my Highway One Quilt as that was the road we followed down the coast from San Francisco thro Los Angeles to San Diego. It was around Thanksgiving time and all the houses were decorated with pumpkins...I loved it!
I also have a table runner (the bright fabric) and a wall hanging with cute pumpkin buttons on! I will take some more picture when I have time. Its my Grandma's 83rd birthday today so we are off out for lunch. We have a surprise trip to London planned for her this weekend so I cant wait to see her face when we tell her!
BJ wanted to join in....will have to get him a little outfit so watch this space!
To finish off today I though I would show you my Jelly Roll fabric "Mad about Pumpkins from Moda. How scrummy is that?? Ive decided on a design and will give you an update next week!

You are so talented, I wish I could sew such lovely things!
Love, love, love Big G in his cape. He is sooo handsome. You must do a layout of that piccy! I have often wished I could dress my George, but he is a cat and not quite so willing!!
