Welcome to the Craft Hackers Quilt a Long (courtesy of fab shop hop!) Block 8 is the Jack O' Lantern This is an intermediate level quilt. If you don't have a lot of basic quilting skills you probably don't want to attempt this quilt or you may get frustrated. The quilt a long will stay posted so if you are learning to quilt you can always come back and join at any time, even if we are finished! Please post your squares as you finish them so we can cheer you along! Even though I am posting a square a month I don't want anyone to feel pressured that you must finish the block within a month. This is a relaxed quilt a long that you can complete at your own pace. Although anyone finishing their quilt during the quilt a long time will be featured in a special blog. The finished dimensions are 72" by 72". Just to remind you, here is the finished pattern: Here is the pattern for the Jack O' Lantern block 8. www.dropbox.com/s/obbll0g744ctybz/9-halloween_fabshop_hop_jackolantern%5B1%5D.pdf?dl=0Just remember you are making 4 Jack O' Lanterns, not just one.

I know I am a few days late with this one. All of the holidays got in the way! The post will be up on Monday pointing to this thread. I haven't had a chance to make it yet, but will get to it in 2 weeks. If there are any changes to the pattern I will change the original post.

It's only rectangles and HSTs so hopefully they got the pattern right

I am hoping, although there have been a few minor mistakes in other simple ones. If anyone makes it before I get a chance to please let me know if there are any issues! I would make it now, but all of my Halloween fabric is at my mother's house.

Hey Toni! I just found this site where people can post Quilt-a-longs (since I needed more projects and now have them in one convenient place!). Maybe it would make sense to post this QAL there? www.quiltalong.net/

I have finished the block and there weren't any problems at all. This is my mother's block for her quilt we made together. I haven't had a chance to do mine yet.
