Design Wall Monday & Dress Up Your Roll






It's Design Wall Monday again. Here are my next installments for my calendar quilt.
The first October block was not to my liking. I machined embroidered the spider's web but things just didn't go well. The fabric I chose for the lettering was too busy and the overall presentation was off.
I really like the black cat on the fence so that 's the one I'll use in the quilt. I used more of my fence rail fabric and a little bit of a batik hand dyed fabric for the pumpkins. I hand embroidered a couple of curly vines to each pumpkin.
Remember to pop over to Judy's to see what everyone else is doing!




 I decided to make another toilet roll cover. I tried my hand with an half and half theme.... thus the night and day scene.
Jane is hosting this great challenge. Pop over to learn more.

Your calendar quilt is going to be so cute. I like the black cat also. Your toilet roll cover is too cute!

I like your second October much better!
Now does the September one mean that September is the month to go on a cruise?

Great design wall. I love the calendar blocks; have been watching the posts about them. The spider web blocks looks very spooky, like Halloween. You are on a roll with the covers. You're so creative.
