Halloween treat bags and quilt...

I wanted to make a couple of Trick-or-Treat bags for my little granddaughters, Alayna & Audrey.
So I found this tutorial at Cluck Cluck Sew - thanks, Allison! 
They were super fun and easy...
 
 
My customer, Amanda from Alaska, made this stunning 2-block quilt out of Halloween prints:
(get this - her husband helped her design it - sweet!)
 

 
Thank you, Amanda, for allowing me to quilt whatever I wanted to.
 
 
 I quilted just a few spider webs...
 
 
and changed thread color - ohhhhhh.....the back is just as pretty as the front!
 

 
Great snuggly for Halloween!
