Your response to my latest Halloween paper pieced blocks was so overwhelming that guess what? I designed more! Let’s get as much Halloween as possible!
You can purchase just my SPIDER BLOCK HERE, or If you want to make a Spider Pillow just like Connie’s, you can order Connie’s kit by going to OCTOBER 31 PILLOW KIT. The kit will include the Spider pattern.
That’s all for now…but we still have lots of time before Halloween 2021, so stay tuned for even more Halloween fun!
This spooky quilt was put together by my customer Donna. She did an awesome job using my collection of Halloween blocks. All of these block patterns, as well as all of the gnome blocks can be found at ETSY.
This is such an easy pattern…using a striped fabric for Wanda The Witch’s hair makes it look like it has lots of texture. Wanda has such a beautiful wonky nose! Very witchy indeed!
My Goofy Witch has 2 sparkling teeth and a giant wart on her nose. Wouldn’t it be fun to make potholders from these two lovely witches? Which witch is which????
Here are a few more adorable Halloween projects made from my paper pieced witch and cat patterns…
Gayle constructed this wonderful Halloween pillow using my TOOTHY WITCH. I love her fabric choices!
Here is SCAT CAT used in a pillow. See how easy those crazy teeth are using a striped fabric? And what a great border fabric!
Here is the same SKAT CAT pattern. Look how fabrics can change the look of a pattern! The fabrics you choose say something about your personality.
Keep sending me your Halloween photos. I love seeing what you are creating.
My newest book, PAPER PIECING ALL YEAR ROUND, has patterns for every month of the year. This book is hot off the press and can be pre-ordered on Amazon.
Here are 2 October blocks from my book made into Mini Quilts…

What’s more fun than witchy-poos? I’ve just finished a new paper pieced witch block to add to my collection. I love designing Halloween images, so I am having a lot of fun this month.
I couldn’t resist sharing 1 more Halloween paper pieced block…SPIDER.This pattern is designed for an intermediate paper piecer, and would make really cute Halloween potholders or pillows. Consider pairing it with my Spooky Spider block from the BOO Collection.
HAPPY HALLOWEEN to everyone!
Watch for the Pick A Pumpkin Blog Hop starting next week! Can’t wait to have some “Pumpkin Fun”. Linking this week with:
Witches, and witches, and more witches…OH MY! Witch blocks are so much fun! Welcome to the PEEK-A-WHO BLOG HOP, sponsored by Marian Pena at Seams To Be Sew. This blog hop is for sharing some fun Halloween ideas, and I have been very busy designing for Halloween since it is my favorite!
Make sure to read all the way to the end of this post so you don’t miss the GIVE-AWAYS!
Here is a brand new pillow pattern called WITCHY POO PILLOW. This pillow fits a 12″x 22″ pillow form. It is paper pieced and so much fun! I added 1″ wide rick rack around my blocks. This is such an easy way to add a little pizzaz. The rick rack is attached by sewing it directly over the seam between the blocks and the outer border. I stopped stitching an inch before the corner, turned the pillow, and pinched the rick rack into a “mitered” corner. Then I resumed sewing until an inch from the next corner. It makes a nice “frame” around the paper pieced portion.
Shelley made her Witchy Poo with orange rick rack, and Donna used a cute “BOO” ribbon as a border. She found the ribbon at Michael’s Craft store. So clever!
This is TOOTHY WITCH. The block finishes at 8″x 8″ and can be used in a pillow, potholder, or whatever! It was fun choosing fabric for her hat and hair.
This is HAPPY WITCH. She’s the kind of witch I wouldn’t mind meeting on Halloween!
And here’s a witch I designed last year…BEWITCHED. She’s still a favorite! My goal is to put all 3 of these cute witches into a table runner…I just haven’t had time yet! If you make a clever project using any of my witches and you share a photo with me, I would love to post it on my website. Send the photo to my email at: maryannhertel@gmail.com
WITCHY PILLOW is another cute throw pillow for your sofa for the fall season. Find a striped Halloween fabric for the socks, and this paper pieced design is a breeze.
This pillow was done by my friend Eva using the new Halloween fabric line from Studio Fabric, “Me and My Ghoul Friends”. Isn’t it adorable?
Made By Marney paper pieced patterns can be found on ETSY or CRAFTSY. Thanks for stopping by, and please leave a COMMENT.
And now for the GIVE-AWAYS coordinated by Seams To Be Sew…
Shelley created this adorable table topper using 8 of my blocks. I have posted her sweet table topper once before, but couldn’t resist sharing again. She was just getting ready to bind this baby, and put it out for Halloween.
Lynne created this funky table runner. I am enjoying her fabric choices! I’d love to see what you are creating for Halloween.
To see all of my Halloween blocks, visit my Etsy or Craftsy shops.
Here’s a new paper piecing pattern hot off my sewing machine and just in time for your Autumn tablescape.
To construct this table topper, you could use any 4 blocks that measure 8″x 8″ unfinished. The Jack O Lantern Table Topper pattern has 2 pumpkin blocks that repeat.
One pumpkin has a toothy grin…
And the other is toothless…
Or, be creative and substitute some of my other Halloween blocks for some of the Jack O Lanterns. Wouldn’t it be cute to have a table topper with all black cats?
And my fave…Skat Cat block. These 4 cats would look adorable together!
One thing I love about this octagonally shaped mat, it looks cute from every direction. Whatever you create with my patterns, I would love to see. Email me a photo and I might share it in my next post. My email: maryannhertel@gmail.com
