April is here, and so is a new exciting QuiltInk Challenge! This month, we’re thrilled to showcase a fun and festive challenge inspired by Halloween, featuring a palette chosen for the Hey Betty Boo quilt pattern designed by Ann from Crafty Moose Quilts.
Before we jump into the challenge details, let’s take a moment to celebrate our March winners!

Now, let’s dive into this month’s challenge where you’ll have the chance to win a fabulous prize and create your own spooktacular quilt!
Halloween has always held a special place in Ann’s heart, especially the magical moments spent with her son, racing from house to house, giggling over their candy hauls. Those memories of joy and excitement have stayed with her, and they’re reflected in the colors she’s chosen for this month’s challenge. Inspired by the playful vibe of Lella Boutique’s 2024 Hey Boo fabric line, Ann selected a palette filled with rich oranges, deep purples, and cheerful whites. These colors, reminiscent of autumn nights and Halloween festivities, evoke the spirit of celebration and whimsy that has always made Halloween so special to her.

These are the same colors she’s using for her upcoming quilt pattern Hey Betty Boo, a fun and lively design that will be released this April. Perfect for capturing the fun, spooky magic of the season, this palette is sure to inspire your quilt designs!
With this palette, you’re invited to get creative—whether you’re stitching up a Halloween masterpiece or simply enjoying the playful spirit these colors inspire. We can’t wait to see how you’ll bring these colors to life in your QuiltInk mock-ups!
MEET ANN FROM CRAFTY MOOSE QUILTS
Ann is a passionate quilter living in McKinney, TX, with her husband and almost-grown son. She began her quilting journey in 2011, primarily as a self-taught enthusiast (thanks to YouTube!). Her mother, however, made sure she mastered the essentials early on—like the quarter-inch seam and the magic of a good iron.
By day, Ann creates custom t-shirt and memory quilts for clients across the country. By night, she designs fun and joyful quilt patterns, hoping they inspire others just as much as they bring her joy. Ann is also a designer with The Nine Patch Quilt Collective, co-hosting the annual Sweater Weather Sampler.
On her website, you’ll find her online fabric shop, featuring Art Gallery Fabrics and a wide range of quilt kits. Ann’s work is driven by a love for simple yet striking designs and color gradients, a passion that’s paired perfectly with her love for Quilt Ink.
Her inspiration comes from the shifting hues of sunsets, oceans, and mountains, along with the unexpected beauty she finds in the stacks of t-shirts that come through her sewing room.
