Scrappy Pumpkin Table Runners and Pillow Covers

I have finished the two table toppers and the two pillow covers!

It is difficult to get the quilting to show on the black background, so I didn’t get too fancy with it.

One runner has five pumpkins, the other four. The amount of pumpkin blocks depended upon the size of my cabinets.

The backing… I have lots of this fabric and I am trying to use it up.

All dressed up for the season!

Pumpkin Pillows

It is hard to tell, but the backing for the white/grey pumpkin is a print of ghosts and pumpkins.

I am enjoying working on seasonal projects and using up stash at the same time!

I found an easy pumpkin tutorial shared by Amy Smart and it has been fun to make!

I am making two table runners to fit two different cabinets in my home.

I am also making two different pillow covers for the couch.

I added enough black squares (great to use them up) to make them the size that I need for the pillow forms that I have.

On to the not so fun part; making batting the sizes that I need from the scraps that I have.

Frankenbatt…appropriate for the season!

Bats and Boos Completed!

Last update!

I will not be carrying this project into the new year! Bats and Boos is done!

A few close ups of the free motion quilting:

I did not use a walking foot for the lines. I used a free motion foot and a ruler. I find that easier and faster (though not necessarily neater).

The backing is a novelty print that I have had in my stash for some time.

The white corner is my label. I still need to write on it.
