Questions

How many free patterns are in this collection?

9 right now, from 16 to 60 pieces each. 3 of them are beginner-friendly. All are free to recolor and print, with no sign-up.

Which block here is easiest?

The gentlest are Candy Corn (16 pieces in 2 sections), Ghost (24 pieces in 5 sections) and Faceted Pumpkin (23 pieces in 6 sections). Fewer sections means fewer joins to line up.

How do I make a Halloween table runner from FPP blocks?

Sew three to five blocks, join them in a row with sashing strips between, then add a border, quilt it and bind it like any small quilt.

What colors work best for Halloween blocks?

Orange, black and purple are the classics. A dark background like navy, plum or black makes pumpkins and moons glow.

Can I download these patterns as a PDF?

Yes. Each pattern opens in NiftyFifty's free FPP tool, which prints the foundations or downloads a PDF with a 1-inch test square, an assembly map, the sewing order and every foundation at exact size with 1/4-inch seam allowance.
