I love decorating for Halloween – especially because my kids get such a kick out of the
holiday. But I don’t want anything too spooky or over the top. A delicate garland made of felt bats is perfect for over the fireplace.
You’ll Need:
1/4 yard black felt
bat template
scissors
sewing machine
Instructions:
Step 1: Using the bat template, cut out bat shapes from felt
Step 2: Stitch across one bat on the sewing machine. At the end of the bat, place a second bat wing-to-wing and stitch across the second bat to join them together. Repeat with all bats.
