Moon Houses II - Handwork & Halloween

Here is the Halloween wall hanging I made for my daughter (so that "Father Christmas doesn't have to hang on the wall all year long!!):


I just hand quilted around the pre-printed fabric--which I love--and then for Spring and Summer I made this reversible and--voila--






I've been fighting this awful back strain and so only doing handwork, as I don't have to bend over my machine...here is the latest incarnation of "Into the Woods II: Moon Madness":


When we cruised the Carribbean last year, we passed by so many deserted islands with falling-down houses.It really looked like the land that time forgot--really lush and fog bound-- and this is a little memento of our trip:

 I found this old leaf print yardage in my stash and added the rampant greenery....I only wish I had more of it--I love that green-marooney-purpley colorway...
