Woopsie Doodles Witchy Poo

Woopsie Doodles Witchy Poo! It seems like a fun project for this Halloween. This year the spooky holiday will be very different from years past. I'm not sure if we'll have trick or treaters. Some cities are cancelling Halloween, one of my favorite holidays. I was thinking this would be a fun project to make to brighten someone's Halloween. Add a bag of a favorite Halloween candy and tuck it in a festive bag along with the mug rug and some hot apple cider mix and you have an instant Halloween celebration. Leave it hanging on your neighbors door, or sitting on their front porch for a sweet surprise! 

Several years ago my sister and I split a grab bag of Halloween scraps and I'm still having fun with it! I made this sweet mini quilt of Witchy Poo's shoes and striped leggings. So festive for Halloween! Let me show you how quick and easy this goes together...

I didn't want to cut out all of those 'stripes' for Witchy Poo's leggings, so instead I cut two 1 1/2" x WOF strips of the black fabric and green fabric. Then sewed them together lengthwise.

I then would cut that in half and sew it again... I repeated this process until I had a nice fabric piece of striped fabric long enough for my applique piece for Witchy Poo's leggings.

I traced Witchy Poo's legging onto my heat and bond and then ironed it onto the back of the black and green striped piece.

Then I cut them out... all ready to put them onto the mug rug center piece. 

I'm all ready to stitch around the fusible applique design. What I love about doing the leg section with the pieced strips is I only need to stitch on the sides of the legs instead of around each striped section. It's really a nice finish for this design.

I hope that you have fun with this pattern. I sure did. I made up a few of them. I also want to thank everyone who popped in and stitched bats with me. I'm planning on having more sew alongs! It was fun!  It's a beautiful day here in Minnesota and the leaves are beautiful. I think Belvedere and I will go for a walk to the park. Then I'm going to spend the afternoon sewing!

Happy quilting!
Cindy and Belvedere
