Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween! I'm so happy to share my pillow cover with you all today. If you follow me on any of the apps I have to the left of your screen (don't forget to look me up ;D), you know I finally finished my Spider Web Pillow cover. Now it's not traditional Halloween colors, but I'm not much for Halloween anyway. But in the spirit of the holiday, and it being a "Spider Web" block, I thought it was fitting. Here it is..

Spider Web Pillow Cover

TADAA!! It's not perfect, but for me and my skillz, it's perfect ;D. This particular project was a bit scary for me. Lots and lots of firsts. For one, trying my hand at the stripy look, another - tryin the spiderweb block..


..first time I try quilting a continuous square (which was hard for me :p)..


..my first time trying my hand at embroidery floss..



..and my first time trying a pillow cover..



It turned out great! Talk about a confidence booster ;D. If you'd like to try this out, Here are the links for the tutes I used.. {House} A La Mode for the spiderweb block, and Sew Mama Sew for the pillow cover.
What was your first??


Happy Halloween, Have Fun, & Be Safe!
