It's a colony of bats!!!!

Nocturna is a quilt block pattern inspired by bats and constructed like a Courthouse Steps block with alternating colours to resemble the psycho-hypnosis effect in scary movies!

The Nocturna block was first designed for the 2023 Soul-a-Long - a delightfully scary quilt block event!
It is now available in my shop as a quilt block pattern in PDF format.

The block finishes at 12" and can be used however you like! Use one for a pillow or bag, sew a few together for a table runner, or make 25 like me for a delightfully batty throw!


I also sewed three together for a spooky table runner!


These samples feature Art Gallery Fabrics Spooky n' Witchy collection - it's so good!
My daughter chose the magenta and pink combination in the quilt below and it's spectacular.
Aspen Grove Quilting added a spiderweb pantograph and it's our perfect Halloween holiday quilt now!

Fall is one of my most favourite seasons of the year.

Why? 

Cozy weather, perfect for snuggling under quilts, changing colours, crisp walks, candlelight dinners are back, my birthday, pumpkins, apples, gratitude, back to school, and the slow-down before the holidays.

I've been wanting to make a maple leaf quilt project for my fall decor, and this a was the year to do it!

The block finishes at 9"


I made my maple leaf blocks extra scrappy with Ruby Star Society and Art Gallery Fabrics scraps from my stash. I chose to make a total of four blocks to become a table runner.

I used a Robert Kaufman chambray that I had on hand for background.


The pattern includes basic instructions for finishing your blocks as a table runner with 2.5" sashing and borders. I quilted my runner with a mixture of machine and hand quilted maple leaf details using Aurifil thread.
