| I laid the 2 1/2" charm squares on the table next to my sewing machine and sewed a few half square triangles and improved sewed blocks for the ghost's eyes. I used all of my white and black blocks to make this sweet little scrappy ghost. |
 |
| I then had a bunch of orange and gray blocks left, so I made a scrappy pumpkin block. I love the scrappy look... |

| Across the street from where we were staying the park was decked out in its Halloween finest. The local boy scout troop had a Halloween carnival set up with games and other fun items. If you look closely, my nephew is in the picture. He also joined us on retreat was excited to check the park activities. He loved the life-sized Guess Who game. |

| The black binding frames the pumpkin mini quilt nicely. I only had a couple of squares left over. Not enough to do much with... |
 |
| My nephew was a great help for taking photos and hid himself behind the scarecrow holding my mini quilts in place! |

Grab a cup of coffee, a sweet treat. My favorite Halloween treat is a mixture of candy corn and roasted peanuts! Tastes like a salted nut roll, oh soooo goooood!
Happy Hopping! Hope you have a spooky time!
