This bright and fun book will make any childs Halloween party ‘Spooktacular’ There are quilts, treat bags and and just about every hair-raising theme to delight and amuse. With full color pictures and easy to follow instructions you can mix and match the designs to suit your creative flair. What I loved about this book is that the designs can used on just about anything, The quilt design can be used on a bag and the spiders web and be a flag to hang or a cushion cover. They have been very cleverly thought out and will inspire every sewist. They do need a level of experience as the projects such as Scrappy Jack can be a bit fiddly, but with a little bit of time these projects can be made in less than day.
