We don't actually "do" Halloween but DD does still participate in the costume parade at school. She enjoys it and I don't mind as long as it's nothing demonic. (last year she was a hot fudge sundea with sprinkles and a cherry on top). But I make cloth tote/goodie bags for each child in her class. I use a fat quarter, cut 3" off the long side to make the handles with then just fold what's left in half, sew the bottom and sides, hem the top and attach the handles. Or sometimes I just make a 15" wof cut, cut it in half for two bags and add grosgrain ribbon for handles. This is her last year for class parties so sometime within the next year I'll probably be selling the rest of my Halloween fabric.

I don't make anything for decoration. I just thanked my lucky stars when I didn't have to come up with costumes anymore! I do hand out lots of candy though.

The bats and stockings are a purple with silver glittery stuff all over it. The blue was not, but you are right, it does look sparkly in the photo. It was not difficult, just took a while to refresh my memory - had been a while since I did applique. Was fun, though. Thanks for the nice comments.Originally Posted by wolfkitty
That is soooooooo cute! I like the letters in blue - they almost sparkle. Very nice job!
