A sweet little ghost pillow

I always enjoy sewing home décor and costumes for Halloween,

 so when I saw that little ghost pillow, I wanted to make one for me,

 even I am more of Halloween crow than ghost!

Doesn't it look just perfect on my new pumpkin quilt?!

I started with 8 low volume prints from Zen fabric,

they are quite interesting (one can review their geometry and math in one of them!).

 I also added 3 squares of Provence fabric to really make it mine!

 I decided to cut all my squares and ironed them to some interfacing

and stitched them to go a little faster: no seam watching and matching.

I just sewed all the rows, clipped at each intersection,

and sewed all the columns, done!

I put some quilt batting,

I did some simple quilting, 1/4 inch away from each seam,

as I didn't want to interfere with the prints. 

And I quilted a simple back with one print, no patchwork.

And following the directions, I added the eyes,

and sewed it all to form a very cute ghost:

But then I found out the inspiration came from a book,so I had to get it, it is a very cute children's book,I read it to the dogs as both of my kids are in college!

Happy Halloween 🎃!
