Ghastlie Blog Hop Day 9 is Mine



From the moment I saw the Ghastlies Line
I knew a Ghastlies creature was soon to be mine
With no Ghastlies fabric in site what could I do
But there was no stopping me for I had the Ghastlies flu
A faint voice from the east cried “check out this store”
And if they are out don’t fret there’ll be more
So I waited impatiently for my creature to arrive
Then I cut and I stitched and I ripped till I cried
When I was done ran to the door
For I could hold my excitement no more
IT’S ALIVE IT'S ALIVE I yelled from the porch
And all the villages lit their torch
As they came closer I trembled in fright
But they said don’t worry, that creatures just right
So I smiled and said how do you do
Secretly knowing they all now had caught the ghastlie flu...
Muwhahahahaha

A few months back when I saw the ghastlies fabric on MadameGhastlies blog I fell in love with it and before long I had committed to being part of the Ghastlies Blog hop. After I had done that I kicked myself for a few days thinking. Okay you have only ever sewn a pair of pj bottoms before and you have never taken part in a blog hop WHAT IN THE #$%@ WERE YOU THINKING!! I spent another few days thinking of what to make and drawing up some ideas and then decided I wasn’t good enough to make anything so I was going to back out. Luckily I have a great husband that when he saw my sketch told me You CAN MAKE THIS. So with that vote of confidence and a husband willing to drive me to the fabric store and help pick out fabric I was all set to make something!

Here it is my Creature door/wall/tree hanging.


and a close up picture of the Creature

Now this being my first ever big sewing/quilting project I hit a few snags, but I think it turned out pretty good. I wasn’t sure how to quilt the middle panel so I just let it be. I stitched in the ditch around the borders and tried my hand for the first time ever at free motion quilting (I took me an hour to get the foot on...lol) on the boo fabric so if I messed up you couldn’t really tell.  Also the Boo fabric glows in the dark..but since this is a ghastlies blog hop you will have to come back tomorrow to see that..lol

After making the door hanging I had a piece of Ghastlie fabric that was SCREAMING MUG RUG MUG RUG!! See he is even pointing to the tombstone saying if you don’t turn me into a mug rug you gonna be in here! WOW how utterly ghastlie!


And this is the back..
Now I know its not Ghastlie's fabric, but I am just pretty proud I made it
Up until a few months ago I had never heard of a mug rug. However, I did some research and for those who are clueless like I was. It is a 6 X 9 mini placemat that is big enough for a mug of coffee and a snack.
I am quite happy with the way that both projects turned out. I even made a little kitty to go with them. Here is a picture of them all hanging out

Thank you for stopping by and helping me celebrate my first ever blog hop contribution! I hope you enjoyed seeing them as much as I enjoyed making them.

***Each of the blogs featured today will submit one name from their comments to Madame Ghastlie.  Which means that person will then have a 1 out of 5 chance to win a super Ghastlie prize. Check out her blog to see what today's prize or should I say prizes are...You read right there are going to be 3 WINNERS
All you have to do to enter is just leave a comment. I will pick one name by 8pm local time 10pmET (I think) and send it off to Madame Ghastlie our lovely hostess for this blog hop. She will have the winner posted on her blog tomorrow and I will post the winner on my blog as soon as I can tomorrow morning!****

And in case you haven’t already PLEASE stop by my Ghastlie Sistahs blogs today

    It's great to have such a supportive husband like that. Mine is the same way and it's such a nice feeling to know they are right there even if they need to give that little push to you when you begin doubting yourself.

    I think your projects are awesome. The fabric you used for the outside border on the larger quilt is awesome and fits quite well with the Halloween theme of the Ghastlies.

    I think you did a super job! I'm a new quilter so I can imagine your panic in the beginning. I think you are so creative to design your first wall hanging. Mugrug and cat are too cute as well. Thanks for sharing with us.

    I would love to win this fabulous fabric. I am poised to make the dinner scene into a quilt with beads and a wee bit of fabric paint.
    I was at my local store and one of the employees had made a blouse out of the dinner scene in green and my mind is off again.
    Now I need to get at it. Thanks for the inspiration.

    I don't know if I'm too late. You said 10et and I believe it's 11et. But, I'm going to comment anyway even if I'm not eligible to win because I love the orange and green and purple colors of your quilt! It's so Halloween and Ghastlie :) Also, no worries, I didn't know what a mug rug was either when they started cropping up all over the place (I had to research as well). Still have yet to make one! Thank you for sharing your projects!
