Pat’s Spooky Silverware Holders©
For One Ghost & One Jack-O-Lantern
you will need:
2 squares orange felt
1 square black felt
1 square green felt
2 squares white felt
1/8 yard Steam-A-Seam
Matching Thread
Note: If you are making a set of multiple ghosts and/or jack-o-lanterns, purchase felt
yardage (white & orange) for the bodies rather than squares.
Instructions:
Cut two ghost bodies out of white felt and two jack-o-lantern bodies out of orange felt.
Cut one stem from green felt and all face pieces from black felt.
Hint from Pat: I press some Steam-a-Seam on a 4 x 4 inch piece of black felt, trace
my pieces on the Steam-a-Seam and then cut them out.
Position the stem and face pieces on the jack-o-lantern and the face pieces on the
ghost. Press to fuse the pieces according to the Steam-a-Seam instructions.
At this point, you can use a variety of stitches to stiich around the face pieces, either
by machine or by hand. Pat used a small applique stitch, but a zigzag would work, too.
When you are done stitching around your fused pieces, stitch the front ghost to the
back ghost (wrong sides together) and repeat for the jack-o-lantern.
Your silverware holders are now ready to impart a chilling effect on your next
Halloween gathering! These make cute candy or snack holders, too!
