I know...I know...it's August and I'm talking about Halloween...a lot, but....it's all I have to look forward to with the beginning of school looming! I recently went to a quilting retreat. I generally take more projects that I can possibly finish. By some miracle...I finished all my projects and all I had left was some stuffing and scraps....so I started making some Halloween 'stuff.' I saw a can kind of like this once on eBay and decided to give it a go. I cut out pieces of fabric to look like bats and a moon. I sewed, stuffed, sewed again to shut them off. I added them to bamboo skewers and then put some foam in the bottom of a coffee can I sprayed black. I added some 'berries' I found at the dollar tree and Spanish Moss. I found a cute little Halloween picture online and printed it out and glued it to the front of the can. Very simple and affordable. And....only one of about 5 things I used that stuffing for....so, more to come!
