Show a little love to the new Pumpkin Love block pattern! The pattern is designed for foundation paper piecing (FPP) and includes FPP templates for two block sizes (4” and 6” finished) and instructions for turning the larger block into a coaster or trivet! The size options for this block make it perfect for sampler-style quilts or all kinds of other projects, so you can use it however you like.

All the cool breezes and pumpkins popping up on porches got me in the mood to put out my Halloween decorations, which of course also got me in the mood for some Halloween sewing. Join me with this Halloween sewing projects round up of blocks, quilts, and other holiday projects!

Halloween's almost here, but I've got one more "spooky" project to share with you. I made the 18.5" sample block for the One Scrappy Witch pattern with one thing in mind -- a spot on my living room couch.

Last year, I shared the free Boo Blocks pattern on the Havel’s Sewing blog, and while I made up some cute sample blocks, I never managed to get around to turning them into something more useful — that is, until now! The first project in my month of Halloween sewing was turning those blocks into coasters!

After seeing a few other scrappy spooky-themed blocks pop up in addition to my One Scrappy Witch block pattern and One Scrappy Pumpkin block tutorial, I started brainstorming my own scrappy sampler Halloween quilt. Here’s everything you need to know to make the cutest Halloween throw quilt around.

I’m back with another free Halloween block tutorial for you! This simple scrappy pumpkin combines squares and HSTs to create a super-size 18.5” block. Like the One Scrappy Witch block, this pumpkin is perfect for inserting into all your Halloween quilts, pillows, or wall hangings.

Earlier this week, I released the free One Scrappy Witch block pattern, and I hope you’re already loving it! The pattern includes two versions of the fun, scrappy block: 12.5” and 18.5”. You can, of course, use the blocks for any number of crafts, but it turns out the 12.5” block is perfect for a candy tote for trick-or-treating, and today I’m here to show you how to make your own!

There are so many cute Halloween fabrics available these days, and I wanted to create a pattern that would let me use as many of them as possible. Scrappy witches have yet to have their day in the sun, so I decided to put an end to that, and the result is the One Scrappy Witch block, a simple and fun addition to your Halloween sewing repertoire.
