Eerie Night Hop - My Day and a Giveaway

Today is the final

day of the

Hop! 

Thank you to all of you that have stopped

in and visited everyone's blog.

A big thanks to Marian for entrusting me

with hosting this hop while she

in one her way back to the states.

I figured since I was hosting the hop,

I need to join in the fun.

No quilting for this project,

I had to create a Mad Hatter costume for my daughter.

She doesn't like to match anyone

else, so a handmade jacket

was just the ticket.

This is what I came up with for her..

 Using Simplicity pattern #8020, fabric, interfacing,

some of my favorite threads, 

and a few hours.

I made her this.... 

As you can see the Mad Hatter,

(well the newer version)

had spools of thread for a sash.

I threaded them

all using DMC embroidery floss

and my iCraft Mixed Media Adhesive.

(Love that stuff)

My favorite are the variegated

spools.  

They are so fun. 

I might have to put them all in

a jar after Halloween is

over.

If I can get them back from

my daughter.

For my Halloween projects of past,
in my home

I don't decorate a lot,
but here are a couple of my favorite

decorations.
My one and only Halloween quilt,
which you can see here in more detail.

I also just finished a tutorial

over at Thermoweb

for these little pumpkins.

They are going to

work their way right into

my Thanksgiving décor.

Now how about a giveaway...
A beautiful thread set from
Aurifil.

I hope you enjoyed your stop here

and please stop by the rest of the

hoppers for today.
