I've been working on designing a Halloween quilt that will use a jelly roll that I've had for several years now. The plan is to include a jack-o-lantern, a ghost, and a monster/ghoul thing. I designed this jack-o-lantern block (the one on top) and pieced a sample to try out the design. I like the way that it turned out, but the piecing is a little tricky to make the points at the bottom of the mouth line up properly.
In the bottom picture I just covered up the bottom points to see how it would look without them. I really think it looks fine without them and it would be MUCH easier to piece, so I think I will probably use the bottom design in the actual quilt.
I'm not sure what I'm going to do with this practice block. For now it goes in the orphan block pile.
