Do You Love Halloween?!


I love to decorate my home with Halloween and autumn themes, don’t you?  Although summer is my season of choice, it is a wonderful change when the fall air starts to crisp at night and the days are still warm and sunny. To celebrate, I created “Jack-and-the-Cat”, an autumn and Halloween hooked rug pillow that is featured in the fall issue of Primitive Quilts and Projects Magazine!


With this issue, you’ll get the FREE PATTERN, instructions and template, along with about 15 other wonderful projects by some of your favorite designers, including Kim Diehl, Jennifer Gaston, Dawn Heese and Tonya Robey (Mad Hen Designs). This issue will be available at your favorite quilt stores in a week or so and on newsstands in the first week of August.
