A Spooktacular Quilt

Halloween is coming up fast.  It's time to celebrate with a spectacular (spooktacular) quilt or two! Here is a fabulous quilt made during a sew-along during the 2020 pandemic.  Spooktacular is made with Halloween fabrics and colors, but the only thing really spooky is how much time it must have taken to sew!

Spooktacular by Betty Wicislak, quilted by Longarm Bob at Quilters Quest (Woodridge, IL)

Betty Wicislak created this quilt as part of Bonnie K. Hunter 2020 Sew Along, titled Unity.  To quote Bonnie K Hunter: "During the early shelter-at-home days of Covid-19, we sewed together from all over the world, making one round a week to complete this quilt in UNITY." 

Betty used a wide range of fun Halloween fabrics and colors, including spiders, cobwebs, candy corn, and fabric printed with the words "SPOOKY" and  "BOO".  Stars, pinwheels, and flying geese make this quilt positively vibrate with energy.
