Name something more magical than apple cider on a hay ride? For me, that’s hard to do! Though carving pumpkins or an afternoon walk among gold-and-red leaf trees are top contenders. There’s just something special surrounding autumn that makes everything seem that much brighter! And as the temperature here starts to dip, it’s also a good excuse to start sewing more projects, both for the home and for the wardrobe. In this new issue, we deliver some festive favorites for every quilter to love. Start by getting into the spooky spirit and sew a stunning quilted door hanger featuring a full moon and a bat! Pair it with fresh pumpkins from the farm and your doorway will be ready for trick or treaters in no time. Next, sew your own charming table runner and coordinating placemat that’s perfect for a full Thanksgiving feast. Treat yourself to a brand new, homemade quilt with Brenda Plaster’s beautiful lap quilt pattern which combines two traditional quilt blocks, the apple pie block and the farmer’s daughter block, to create its unique design. Ready to add some personality to your home? Designer Sophie Tarrant shares her chic Art Deco-inspired cushion cover will add a touch of instant charm to any bedspread or sofa. From an article on quilting as you go methods, to adorable (and spooky) treat bags, you’ll find that and more in We Like Quilting’s October 2025 issue.
Happy quilting!
So looking forward to enjoying and making some of these patterns. I am rejoining this hobby. I used to do some quite a few years back, but now am full time retired so I can get back into it.
Thank you so much for your comment, June! Have a great day 🙂 – Ashley, We Like Quilting
