This is the 3rd year for SAHRR (Stay at Home Round Robin). This challenge was born out of the COVID years. A team of quilters heading by Gail @QuiltingGail, announce a weekly challenge for each round. Starting with a center block (either new of orphaned) - Week one and continuing for 6 weeks of rounds.
This year I will start with an orphaned Halloween quilt block that I made back on 2012 for the Wicked Blog Hop. I am not a big Halloween fan (although my opinion has changed a bit since my grandson was born) so I don't have any Halloween quilts. I made one of the blocks from the blog hop into a wall hanging for my daughter but the rest are in the orphaned basket.
I picked this haunted house block as my center block. It is a 12" block.
Even though I am not a Halloween fan, I do have a fat-quarter bundle of Halloween fabric that I won many years ago and a few other pieces. We will see how this goes as my schedule is pretty full.
Looking forward to the next clue.

Hi Dawn! I love that you are playing along. I had to slightly giggle when you said you're not a Halloween fan . . . but your grandson is changing your mind. I'm in that same boat! What a fun center block. I can't wait to see where you take this project during the next couple of weeks. It will be fun! {{Hugs}} ~smile~ Roseanne
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute block!!! So happy to hear you're joining us in the SAHRR!!!
ReplyDeleteDefinitely a good spooky start!
ReplyDeleteHaha I'm not a Halloween fan either, but the haunted house is neat! I'm looking forward to seeing what you do with it. :)
ReplyDeleteThat's a cute haunted house, and will make a fun center for your SAHRR! Sounds like a great way to use up that Halloween fabric bundle, too.
ReplyDeleteLooks like you have the perfect start! My first was an orphan block, but the last 3 have been design blocks. It's fun either way.
ReplyDeleteA perfect way to use an orphan block! Will be fun to see it grow.
