Pumpkins & Potions Ladder Quilt
Have you seen our Pumpkins & Potions Ladder Quilt? This enchanting 20 x 60" quilt features everything you love about Halloween, including ghosts, bats, spiders, pumpkins, spooky potions, and so much more!
Let's take a look at each bewitching detail. 🎃
Spooky Sentiments
Pumpkins & Potions is sprinkled with a variety of fun and punny Halloween sentiments. Add a dash of Applique Glitter to the witch hat, and also notice the boo-tiful quilting designs!
The (optional) Pumpkins & Potions Background Quilting bundle is sold separately HERE! (More on that later!)
Pretty Potions
Some of my favorite designs are the three potion bottles. Each is made with Clear Vinyl for a stunning "glass" effect and is filled with dimensional ingredients! This one features sparkly confetti bubbles.
Gauzy Ghosts
As the quilt says, these ghosts have "real spirit." 👻 Each features a gauze overlay for a translucent look and decorative stitching for extra style.
Boo-tiful Bats
The quilt also features a delightful cauldron of dimensional bats. Some are made of Embroidery Felt and some are made of lace! These bats are so easy to make, it's almost scary . . .
Also notice the darling plaid background. This isn't a ready-made checkerboard fabric . . .you'll actually take grey, white, and black strips and piece them right in-the-hoop! You'll love our easy technique. 💛
Creepy Cobwebs
No Halloween quilt is complete without cobwebs and spiders, and this block has an "itsy bitsy problem." It's too cute! (Also notice the darling background quilting on this block!)
Shimmery Chandelier
Every haunted house needs a creepy chandelier, and ours shimmers with dimensional beads, rhinestones, and crystals! Details like these really set a Kimberbell project apart! 😍
Lovely Lights
This applique circle features decorative stitches and softly glowing Fairy Lights! Flip the switch to shine the spotlight on October 31.

Needle Minder

It's almost like magic. 😉
Style Tips
Now that we've taken a good look at the quilt, let's talk about how you'll display it. Although this is called a "ladder quilt," you don't actually have to put it on a ladder . . .although WOW when you do, right?
Especially next to a tabletop display like this! (We even made a few extra bats to fly off the quilt!)
There are a variety of ways to display your quilt. Here are some fun tips!
- Ladders: For this quilt, look for a ladder that's at least 20" wide. (You can buy one online if you can't find something locally!) Think about what kind of ladder you like. Rustic? Wood? Metal? Vintage?
- Walls: This quilt is also the perfect size for those narrow walls that are hard to decorate. For example, a long and skinny quilt like this is perfect for the top or bottom of your stairs!
- Doors: A closet or pantry door is also a great space to show off your quilt. You can use an inexpensive wreath hanger and bend it to change the height!
The Pumpkins & Potions Ladder Quilt comes with ties on the back, so you could simply tie a big bow and hang the quilt from one hook. For more styling ideas, catch our special Inside the Hoop episode HERE!
The Pumpkins & Potions Ladder Quilt will be available to purchase the last week of June. You can find it at your favorite quilt shop, on our website, or wherever Kimberbell products are sold!
I hope you enjoy "stitching a spell" with this fun and festive project! 🎃
