In this class, you'll make a cute Halloween jack o’lantern or pumpkin wall hanging. As you do, you'll learn (or refresh) several quilting skills: piecing, appliqué, quilting, and binding including a hanging sleeve. That's the whole quilt process- start to finish! Optionally, you can try trapunto.

Fabric requirements are the same as the pumpkin above. You will want to have a few additional scraps of your favorite black, orange, green, purple prints for the face. These are small pieces 5”x5” of each should be
good.

Additional items needed to appliqué the adorable face.

*Threads to match (or contrast if you want) your prints for the pumpkin, jack o lantern face, star, borders, binding, and backing.

Don’t forget your thread for piecing your wall hanging as you go, your preference. I would go with a black or orange.
Most importantly
Bring your working sewing machine with your power cord and foot controller, quarter inch foot, zig-zag foot and decorative stitch foot (optional).
Helpful items you will want to have - safety pins, wonder clips, a erasable pen- frixion/ air erase / water erase (must be erasable), hand sewing needle, and your regular sewing paraphernalia (stuff like pins, Snips, seam ripper, etc.)
See you then!
