Make This: 9 Autumn Quilting & Sewing Projects
The days are starting to get shorter and the temps are cooling off, so you know what that means: quilting season is here! We’ve got a load of autumn and Halloween themed quilting and sewing projects that are sure to inspire you to create something great for fall.
Pumpkin Table Runner
First off, a festive pumpkin patch table runner. This simple patchwork design is beginner friendly and oh so cute! Our pumpkin quilt block is perfect for fall, and we’ve used it in a few different projects. Click on the photo above to visit our table runner tutorial!
Pumpkin Porch Pillow
Another option for the pumpkin block is a porch pillow. We tweaked our pumpkin blocks slightly to fit on this 16″ x 26″ pillow. Click the photo to read about our adjustments and see more photos.
Pumpkin Quilted Pillow
The final idea for our pumpkin quilt block is just a regular square decor pillow. Our tutorial includes all the information to make the entire pillow cover, from quilting to adding the pillow backs and binding.
Candy Corn Pillow
This stuffed candy corn pillow is a seasonal favorite of ours. The colored parts are pieced together, then cut out and sewn to the backing. The black embroidery details are totally optional, but we think they add a certain handmade charm. It’s a quick afternoon project that can really bring in the festive fall feeling!
Bewitching Beasties Pillows
If you want your candy corn pillow to have some playmates, grab our Bewitching Beasties Pillows pattern. Sew up a Scaredy Cat and Jolly Jack to complete the trio!
Halloween Crossroads Quilt Tutorial
Halloween Crossroads is a fat quarter-friendly quilt that can really be made with fabrics of any theme. We used some really fun Halloween prints and love how it turned out with bold big stitch quilting.
Halloween Arrows Table Runner
Halloween Arrows is a bonus project you can make using the trimmings from the Halloween Crossroads Quilt. It’s made completely of half-square triangles, and you can make it in any size you want!
Spooky Ladder Quilt
Spooky Ladder is the quilt Diane made with her fat quarter bundle of Spooktacular fabric. Click the photo to read all about it!
Candy Corn Four Patch Quilt
Candy Corn Four Patch is a quilt that Diane made years ago. The piecing is simple, but the colors of the fabric used can make it look much more intricate. There’s a mini tutorial for this one, with a quilt diagram and block measurements.
We think this is a pretty great collection of quilts. But, as we do, there are plenty more Halloween fabrics in our stash. What should we make next?
All of your autumn quilting projects are great to use up scrappy fabric and they are cute. I do like the table runner. Great projects!
