Treat Bag
Halloween screams candy time! And our little ghosts and goblins need a sturdy – and adorable – treat bag to collect and haul their treats. Our shop created a super simple and seriously fast sewing project that is just perfect for trick-or-treating. The Notebook Tote Bag tutorial is a beginner friendly sewing project. It is the perfect size and weight to carry around the neighborhood. We used fabric from the Ghost Town Halloween fabric collection from FIGO Fabrics to make this bag.
Halloween Gift Bag
Need a quick gift for a teacher, co-worker, or friend? Jeni Baker’s Lined Drawstring Bag pattern is the perfect Halloween sewing project. This versatile pattern features 8 different sized drawstring bags. It is beginner friendly and a pattern that can be used across many different holidays, seasons, and events. These bags were created using fabric from the Dashwood Studio Full Moon fabric collection. We still have a few fabrics left!
Halloween Table Runner
Let’s decorate your table! Our latest sewing tutorial is from our shop’s blog called Simple Table Runner Using Flying Geese Quilt Blocks. This tutorial will walk you step-by-step through sewing flying geese using the Creative Grids Ultimate Flying Geese Tool. Flying Geese are popular quilt blocks and very easy to make. They turn out perfect with this tool! We used the Ghost Town fabric for this project, but scrap fabrics in black, brown, orange, and purple would look beautiful as well.
Trick-or-Treat Halloween Banner
Here is another Halloween decorating sewing project. Polka Dot Chair is one of our favorite bloggers. She creates fun and unique sewing projects. This Trick-or-Treat Halloween Banner sewing tutorial will add a little spooktacular fun to your home or front door. This project requires just a little sewing and applique work. Use canvas fabric for the banner to add weight to stabilize this wall hanging.
Cat Zipper Pouch
Don’t let a black cat cross your path – make an adorable cat zipper pouch instead! The Heather Handmade sewing blog has created a Cat Zipper Pouch tutorial that will have even the most superstitious wanting to create one for their own. This is a beginner friendly project that requires a zipper. Don’t worry if you have not sewn in a zipper before. We have a How to Sew a Zipper tutorial on our blog and this pattern is a perfect one to try-out this sewing skill on.

Be sure to have a Water Erasable Marker to draw the spiderweb template on the fabric.
Candy Corn Bunting
Candy corn is one of those treats that once I start eating, I just can’t stop until my teeth and tummy hurt. It is a candy that I cannot have in the house! A Candy Corn Bunting Halloween sewing project is a great solution for my sweet-tooth situation. The Stitch & Sew Awhile blog has put together a simple Halloween DIY project.
