Gothic Graves and Black Cat Quilt Bedding Set for Halloween

A linocut on the bed.

Everything is black or white, nothing in between. A cat sits with its back to you in tall grass, tail curled, facing a full moon that takes up most of the quilt. Bare branches fork across the sky from the right, and leaning headstones and stone crosses run along both edges of the graveyard. The white areas are broken up with fine scratched lines, the way an old woodblock print looks where the ink did not fill. Both pillowcases carry a second cat, this one facing forward under an arched moon with bats above its ears.

Two tones drop into almost any room without a fight: white walls, grey walls, dark wood. It reads Samhain in October and plain gothic the rest of the year, so the bed needs no redressing in November. Good housewarming gift for someone whose place is already black and white.
