It was a dark and stormy night..... I always wanted to use that since I'm Stormy Days and there isn't a better time than MY DAY for the GHASTLIE BLOG HOP.
Before I show you my creations, I want to thank the amazing Madame Samm who became bewitched with this fabric, and put this hop together. All of us Ghastlies have had a great time and I have made some really weird special friends.
Now on with the show.
Now on with the show.
Please follow me (eerie voice)
Here's the husband holding the quilt for me, isn't he just so handsome.
I fell in love with this fabric last year and almost wasn't able to find any, it sold out fast. Luckily some stores restocked and I was able to make this wall hanging.
I wish you could see the pebbling and spider webs that are quilted on this quilt. I had such a great time making it, cackling the whole time. My daughter wanted one, but I didn't have enough fabric, so NO, it's mine all mine.
This year, the Ghastlies came back and guess what? they are knitting. Now you need to know that a while back I told my daughter she needed a hobby to relax, of course, she started knitting which is the only craft that I can't figure out.
I made her this
It's to hold her knitting needles and stuff, I don't knit so it's stuff.
This is the front, isn't that pretty, it reminds me of a cameo and I love the decorative stitch around the border.
The inside pockets and flap so the stuff doesn't fall out, her current one doesn't do that.
Then I made this
I used Geta's awesome tutorial to make this, I've made a few and they are fast and easy and perfect for gift boxes.
Then, how could I resist making this?
A little mini coffin. This was too much fun to make, except for the hot glue gun part, which is something I should never be allowed to own.
The inside, perfect for trinkets.
The mask in the earlier pictures and the hat above are machine embroidery designs from Urban Threads

Now for a thank you from me. I know some of my Ghastlie sisters made two of their creations so they could give one away. My extra walked out the door with the daughter, but I just happen to have a $25.00 gift certificate from I Have A Notion for one lucky person. Rules, there are always rules. You don't (DO NOT) need to follow me to win, but make sure I have a way to contact you, remember Word Press and Blogger don't play well together. If you have Word Press you will show up as a no reply. Leave a comment, any old thing, what you liked best in the hop, just hello will do. I will pick a name at the end of the hop on Nov. 4th

I love the fabric and colors you used in your wallhanging, and the center is very clever. Just Ghastlie of you to make the knitting holder for your daughter since you wouldn't share the wallhanging. Just too clever with the little coffin! And you make Geta's pattern just Ghastlie!! I can't say I have favorites as there is more to come and everyone is so talented with new ideas around every Ghastlie corner. This has been such a fun and unique blog hop that I am so happy to have been part of.
Feliz el Dia do Los Muertos. Love your wall hanging.
I just LOVE your quilt! Actually I love everything you made, but partial to the quilt. I bet the quilting is just perfect for it. :) I love all of your creative projects! Thank you for sharing and please enter me in your GREAT giveaway. :)
That coffin would be great for a pair of glasses!
I love the coffin. Too cute. Definitely going to the top of my Ghastlie to do list.
everything was just Ghastlie!! loved the quilting on your wall hanging. so talented.
huggs,
char
Love the little casket, how creative!
I love your Ghastlie projects. You are a very creative woman. And your quilt is just so awesome. I haven´t ever known of the Ghastlies, but as I´m a follower to Madame Samm I have discovered a lot. I have ordered some Ghastlie fabric too, as the LQS will never ever sell fabric like that. I live in Sweden and the taste of the Swedish quilters is different.
I will make me a quilt only for me.
lovely Ghastlie things. especially the cameo!!
Love the knitting roll up. My daughter knits too. Maybe I should make one for her.
Your projects are just beautiful. I think it is the shades of chocolate that keep popping up and drawing me in. Love the mask and the lace hat. My fave is the wallhanging with the moon and clouds in the middle. The little coffin box is also a winner.
The props you chose for your photos were perfect! Makes me want to go re-shoot the pics for my blog...
love the cute coffin box
I love your wall hanging. You selected lovely coordinating fabrics to make the Ghastlies pop!
Dana, great job on your Ghastlie projects. Your daughter has good taste. Thank you for a wonderful giveaway. Kd ~ www.KdQuilts.com

Thanks for sharing, your quilt is so wonderful!
Your hubby was a great catch I see. I'm sure he doesn't cause you much grief at all. Hehehe. I have never attempted to make a bag of any kind but with all you Ghastlie sistahs cranking them out, I may have to give it a try.
Your quilt is wonderful. I especially like the way you did the center block. In fact, all your projects are great. Thanks for the giveaway too.

Oh my Ghoodness, Dana! How Ghastlie creative are you! This blog hop has been sew much fun! The only thing that could make it better was if we had a Ghastlie retreat and all got together.......oh Madame Samm...what a ghreat idea!
I really have to figure out how you made that coffin - too cute for words! And I've marked the quilt to come back to because I love that you cut a round piece for the middle. I would never have thought of that. Wonderful job! blessings, marlene
I love the knitting rollup. I do knit, and this would be perfect! Thanks for the chance.
Your husband is a Gould Looking Man! Oh, sorry I thought ghastly puns were a requirement for this hop.
Nice ues of the fabric in your quilt and your little gift box is so fun. I wouldn't have thought of that. I saw those boxes yesterday somewhere. May have to work the old brain to figure out where it was. Thanks for your inspiration!
Thank you so much, Dana, for sharing your wonderful projects! Love the quilt and the knitting needles case. Great job!
I just love your trinket box! I have had such a graet time checkingout teh ghastly ideas all of you wonderful ladies have had!!
I love what you made for your daughter's knitting! So adorable! You must make a tutorial on that one!!!

No dark and stormy night here, our Halloween was beautiful and just a bit cool - perfect for a light jacket. Wonderful Ghastlie projects! Yes, I did notice the mask and wondered about it and then was excited to hear that I could get an embroidery design! Thanks for the fun blog.
