Last month, Missouri Star sent me a bundle of Halloween fabrics to sew into a Bat Crazy quilt!

It was such a happy stack of fabric! The collection name is Hey Boo, and it was designed by Lella Boutique for Moda. I love the subtle colors that aren't as bright as the usual Halloween colors!

Several months ago, I picked all this fabric from Missouri Star Quilt Co., including the 10" stack of Country Life fabric by Jennifer Long of Riley Blake Designs. I knew it would make a fantastic Clucks quilt!

I get to share a finish this week that was actually finished almost a year ago!! This quilt was made to show off the Reflections fabric collection by Island Batik, and it appeared in their catalog to sell the fabric. But that meant that I had to make it in secret - starting over a year ago!
