Halloween Bat PDF Sewing Pattern
This pattern is based on the free Bat Pillow Tutorial I've shared previously. It has been upgraded to include 3 sizes: the original Large, and a Medium and Small as well.
Sew a Bat Stuffie with Detailed Wings
It also includes instructions to sew detailed bat wings, which make it more realistic looking and infinitely cuter. Don't you think?
Halloween Bats are easy to make and fun to sew! Make one for yourself or give it to a friend who needs a little Halloween happiness. Three different Halloween Bat sizes allow you to choose how you’ll use them. Make a few small ones as gifts to wrap around a Halloween treat, make a medium one for your favorite little stuffed animal collector, or make a large one to add to your Halloween decor. All you’ll need is some cotton fabric, cotton batting, and polyester stuffing. (This is a great way to use up some batting scraps if you are a quilter.)
Bat Pattern Details
The Halloween Bats Sewing Pattern is a 15 page PDF Pattern that includes 9 pages of step by step photos/instructions and 6 pages of printable pattern pieces that you print from your home computer. This is an "easy" project that is geared toward the beginner sewist. That means you can make this!!
