OK So it wasn't THAT bad!
Firstly I have this Ghastlie cold - yuk!
which in turn leads to Ghastlie procrastination!
Hmm, who knew this could happen!
I did have a little play with these Ghastlie fabrics ....
and moved onto working on the Modern Christmas Table Runner Swap for my partner ...
do you know how Ghastlie it is to make 126 Half Square Triangles!
and then I moved onto the latest round to the Brit Quilt Swap - Pillow Fight!
I have a good idea for my partner but needed to try a little experiment with some bondaweb (not my normal fusing medium)
so I can then convert it into this ....
trust me, my compass work was Ghastlie!
But the Ghastliest thing about this weekend was the treatment of my credit card, which is now hiding in terror!
Mmmm, Tanya Whelan ...
Amy Butler, Kitty Yoshida and some Erin McMorris ...
oh and a little more Amy Butler for good measure ...
and just a little autumn inspiration for a commission quilt in the making.
No wonder I had a Ghastlie weekend! There may be a few more Ghastlie moments to come!
Happy Quilting!

Oh my, I would like to have had a Ghastlie weekend (well, except for the cold)! Although, I think I would be in Ghastlie trouble with my husband if I brought home all that lovely fabric! ;)
Yep, I'd like a day as Ghastlie as that too!!!
Oh wow Trudi! Your poor poor credit card :-) Awesome shop! Cant wait to see what you've done with Ghastlies...
Trudi, I think your credit card needs to know when somethng is 'medicinal' or 'therapy'. I have some of that Ghastlie fabric and I'm not sure what to do with it, I just HAD to have it. I can't wait to see what you did. Hope your cold gets better.
I take it you enjoyed Doughty's then! :)
Look forward to seeing what you have done with the ghastlies fabric!
Feel better soon!
And it's not even Halloween yet!!! But some of those ghastlies are really lovely! Jxo
Oh your poor credit card - but I think it was worth it.
Gosh what a haul! I'm liking the look of your pillow fight piece, I shall be watching it with interest. I decided to pass on the swap at the last moment but I'm very excited to see what everyone creates.
All very pretty fabric and going to make some fun projects.

I think your credit card bill might be ghastlie but your quilt will be lovely!
Lots of eye candy...can't wait to see what you are making with that ghastlie fabric.

I love all of the fabric. My weekend wasn't as ghastlie as yours so I'm a little jealous. lol. I can't wait to see everyone's completed ghastlies projects.
Wonderful purchase! Wow! It is going to be fun creating while your credit card chills! (((smiles)))
Well, if that's a Ghastlie weekend, I wonder what a good one is like?
Oh my! I LOVE that josephs coat block. It's going to look amazing! Can't wait to see it :-)
Gorgeous new fabric! Love your idea for the PF swap...hope your cold gets better soon x
Oh, I wish I had been hopping with you!
