Let’s check out some of the latest entries… 

We had LOTS of lovely witches!

This sweet Whitney Witch looks happy it’s nearly Halloween! Christy Rupe used all upcycled materials to sew this pattern. 

 

Susan Johnstone gave her Whitney Witch some added flair by tying her cape closed with silver ric-rac. I also like the witch fabric on the toy’s chest.

 

I don’t think we’ve ever had a harvest yellow version of Whitney Witch! Maria Barnes posed her autumnal toy in a leafy landscape.

 

And Jenny Loader dressed her Whitney Witch in traditional black, but added tiger stripe orange socks. Very fashionable!

Batty & Boo were popular too!🦇👻

Batty Bat and Boo the Ghost are popular non-candy Halloween treats. Jenny Templeton made a whole heap of toys for a school fete! Jenny also added a note that she attached the free Funky Friends Factory copyright credit tags to her toys. You can see them in each little Boo. Thanks, Jenny! 

If you’re selling a toy or donating for a charity raffle or auction, make sure to attach a credit tag. You’ll find a free printable a free printable HERE.

 

 

I love this photo of Jessica von Roy’s son surrounded by 25 Boo the Ghost toys! Jessica made these for her son’s birthday party at school and gave them to each child in the class with a small orange citrus fruit to act as a pumpkin. What a great birthday treat!

 

Joy Davies whipped up some spooky Batty Bats with glow in the dark fabric!

 

I like how Joy used colored felt circles behind the eyes for an extra pop of color. 

 

She made some cute Boo the Ghost toys, too! 👻🏆

Maximus Mouse is a Hit for Halloween! 

Here’s a whole troop of Halloween mice ready to be used as treats for special kids. Each Maximus Mouse is different! Do you see Melissa Burleson’s cat ready to pounce?

 

Almira S used a selection of vintage Halloween theme fabrics for her trio of Halloween Maximus Mice. Do you see the Oct 31 date specially placed on one mouse’s paw?

 

Erica Woolmington sewed this cute duo from Shannon Fabrics Cuddle brand minky and accents of glow-in-the-dark fabric. Erica likes to make smaller scale toys, so she reduced Maximus Mouse to 75% for this project!

 

Here’s a really unique Maximus Mouse! Kirstie Louise Barnett sewed up Maximus Mouse to look like a Frankenstein’s monster using green fabric and a few decorative black stitches.

Other cute Halloween critters!

I hope you’ll get as big a laugh from this entry as I did! Lindy Meredith sewed up Larry Lion in Halloween candy fabric…and then made his a “costume.” 😆

Here’s another really creative entry! Diene Patterson sewed up Belinda Butterfly in some beautiful bat fabric and purple minky.

Wow, there’s a lot of fussy-cutting involved in this Kelsey Keepsake Unicorn. Tonya Schuettner explains in her caption how she used Halloween fabric panels for the project.

Gertrude Guinea Pig is a great project for using up seasonal fat quarters because she’s meant to have a patchwork look. Beth Pollard used matching Halloween fabric to sew up several Guinea Pigs in varying sizes.

You may think of the Valentine’s Love Monster Pattern as a Valentine’s Day option only, but he actually works great for lots of holidays. Love Monster has been submitted in all of the Halloween contests we’ve had! Jennifer Churcher sewed up this sweet, not scary, monster.

 

Paula Blevins made this Love Monster into a Halloween hit with orange fleece and patterned accent fabric on the arms.

I love that Tom Turkey is getting in on the Thanksgiving action early this year with his Halloween-appropriate pumpkin fabric. This turkey was sewn by Geri Glass.
