I wanted to stitch a smaller project for Halloween and this pattern fit perfectly on a fat eighth of stash fabric.  It was a very fun stitch, as all the little details quickly emerged.   I love the words all around the perimeter: creepy crawly / tricky treaty / ghostly ghouly / scary spooky / funky freaky/ squirmy squishy / hazy crazy.  

The fabric is a grey/brown mottled opalsescent (sparkly!)  Perfect for a Halloween design IMO, with a foggy night sort of feeling.

My favorite detail is the little black cat saying “meow”.  I also like the flock of bats, and dangling spiders.  It’s not my usual style, but I like the cuteness.  This is my first Imaginating project, but certainly not the last!
