Halloween Rag Quilt

I finally finished my Halloween Rag Quilt, Yippee!
My kids have loved it so much.
They just lay it out like a 'carpet' and sit and lay all over it.

I layed out my fabric how I wanted it to be when it was done.

I sewed the squares together in rows. Then the rows together, with a 1/2 inch seam.

 Here's the long and tedious part... start cutting notches, about a 1/2 inch'ish, around every seem. Don't cut into the thread.


Then put it in the wash (cold water, no soap) then put it in the dryer to get it to fray!

 Like my cute bat pillow! It's from Ameroonie's shop.

Just in time for the snow that started flying today.
Happy Warm Halloween!
