Have you seen the Cotton and Steel 2016 Halloween fabric collection? If you don't want to be tempted to buy some, close your eyes now.
I only say that because I had no intention of buying it.
Until I saw it. All packaged up into a bundle of 9 fat quarters.
And then before I knew it, I was smack dab in the middle of a halloween napkin project. Can I just say how much I love making mitred corners? Which is totally weird because I don't like very precise things. Unless they involve making mitred corners. Apparently.
Before I knew it I had nine new napkins.
Nine napkins is an odd number but I like how well they go with my odd colored fall tablecloth.
Oh. And I had enough scraps to make a new coffee cozy.
A Halloween coffee cozy. With a special pocket.
For my "buy 10 get one free card". That I never remember to bring with me.
Until now that is. Am I a genius or what?
Fabulous napkins and the pocket for your coffee card is a genius idea!!

Traipsing around the countryside and sewing are quite admirable activities. However, may I point out that some of us are waiting for that October Sign that it is time for the candy corn and peanuts? I fear you are letting the side down. Remember, you have set a very stiff standard and some of us are sitting here, salivating, unopened bag of candy corn at hand, waiting for the signal.

Certifiably GENIUS, I say! The napkins are a bunch of very scary cuteness. Great fabrics.
I agree with Jeanette, when does the go for the Peanuts & Candy Corn signal go up on the amber alert signs on the freeways and iPhones?

Yes, a genius. The pocket could also hold a Starbucks (or other favorite) gift card and make a nice little teacher's gift or "Cousin Julie" gift or everyone at the office Christmas gift. The possibilities are endless. GENIUS!
