Hello friends!  This is Jennifer Long from Bee Sew Inspired and I am excited to share my not-so-spooky Halloween Quilt pattern with you.

Spooky and Sweeter Halloween Quilt using Fabric Panels and Raw-Edge Applique

The inspiration for this quilt pattern came from a Halloween Bag fabric panel (Art Gallery Fabrics – Spooky and Sweeter) but the beauty of this pattern, is it can be made with any large-scale fabric prints you already have at home.

I love the opportunity to fussy-cut cute prints and you can really get creative with the applique placement.

Are you ready to get started?  Let’s have some fun and whipping up this fun quilt this weekend!

What you need:

1 Spooky ‘n Sweeter Fat Quarter Bundle containing at least 17 prints.

1 Spooky ‘n Sweeter 36” Sweet Haunting Panel (Or additional yardage with large motifs suitable for fussy cutting and applique.)

Black Solid Fabric for Top and Bottom Border: ¼ yard

Medium Grey Solid for Background: 2 yards

Binding: 5/8 yard

Backing: 3 5/8 yards

HeatnBond LITE sewable Iron-On Adhesive for applique

StitchnSew Sew-in Fleece

(Optional) EZ Print Lite if transferring your own designs and not using a fabric panel

Instructions:

From the panel, cut (2) large panel images, referencing the quilt photo for panel orientation.

Use the Triangle Template provided to fussy cut (21) panel or print images from the triangle portion of the Spooky n’ Sweeter Panel and (21) background fabric triangles

Trim up the remaining section of the panel featuring small motifs (witch, cat, spider web, skeleton, pumpkin). On the wrong side of the left-over panel piece, fuse a piece of Heat ‘n Bond LITE Sewable Iron-On Adhesive trimmed to the size of that panel piece. Cut out each of the (5) individual small motifs along the printed lines on the panel for raw edge applique. Set aside for Applique Blocks.

Gather (5) 12 ½” background squares and (5) applique motifs prepared with Heat n Bond LITE sewable Iron-On Adhesive during the cutting instructions. The applique motifs should already be trimmed to the finished size.

Remove the paper from the glue side of each applique motif. Place each applique motif onto the right side of (1) 12 ½” background square. Fuse each applique motif in place with your warm iron.

Finish the raw edges of each applique motif with a coordinating thread color by hand or with your sewing machine using the decorative stitch of your choice.

There should be (5) Applique Blocks, each measuring 12 ½” x 12 ½” unfinished.

Following the cutting and assembly directions in the Halloween Applique Quilt Pattern, make (4) Star blocks.  The blocks should measure 12 1/2″ x 12 1/2″ square.

Assemble the whole quilt top center according to the cutting and layout instructions in the downloadable PDF pattern.

Your Quilt Top is complete!

Layer your backing, StitchnSew Sew-in Fleece and quilt top. Quilt as desired.

Bind the edges with your favorite binding method.

For added fun, embellish your quilt with long stitch hand quilting, embroidery or buttons.

Hi Friends! I am so happy you are here. My name is Jennifer Long, and I am a Riley Blake Designs Fabric Designer, Quilt & Doll Pattern Writer, Machine Embroidery Digitizer, and online educator. I am also the founder of the Sew A Story Pattern Club and the Modern Rag Doll Membership. I am married and a mom to (4) pre-teens / teens and live on a little hobby farm in rural Prairie Canada. I grew up training to be a professional ballet dancer, and later studied Early Childhood Education. I taught ballet and ran my own dance studio all the while sewing and designing costumes for myself and many of my colleagues and students. I am passionate about all things FABRIC, imagination and design and am so blessed I can share this passion with others. This journey has inspired me to make a positive difference by designing dolls and quilt patterns and fabric for others to be EMPOWERED to sew themselves! I have designed dolls and quilts for individuals, organizations, companies, designers, authors of children’s books, and international companies for mass production. What I LOVE the most about creativity is finding INSPIRATION everywhere and, in turn, INSPIRING others to do the same! Thank you for joining me on this creative journey.
