Howdy ya’ll, it’s Jamie Mueller of Sunflower Quilts back with another fun project. I made this cute Halloween Quilt just in time to decorate for Fall but this technique can be used for any design or holiday. If you have a fabric you love with a large motif, take this technique a make a different quilt. The possibilities are endless and remember, let the FABRIC do the WORK!
Spooktacular HeatNBond Quilt
Finished size: 66 ½” X 66 ½”
Supplies:
*Fabric used: Spooktacular by Blend Fabrics
49-10” squares (24- FQ OR 12-1/3 yard cuts)

1 yard Heat N Bond® Ultrahold
4 yards backing fabric
½ yard binding fabric
Directions:
1. If you’re not using precut 10” squares, cut 49-10” squares.
2. Fuse Heat N Bond® Ultra on the WRONG side of Jack-o-lantern fabric.
*Please excuse how dirty my Oliso Pro Iron is; I use it everyday and HIGHLY recommend it!
3. Cut out 24- Jack-o-lanterns using sharp small scissors.
4. Following package instructions, fuse jack-o-lanterns onto 24-10” squares.
5. Using a small zig-zag stitch and matching thread to jack-o-lanterns, stitch around entire jack-o-lanterns for all 24 blocks.
6. Layout blocks 7 rows x 7 blocks as desired.
7. Sew blocks together until quilt top is completed.
Enjoy your fun new quilt and remember to use this appliqué technique to let the FABRIC do the WORK for your next quilt project!
