The month of October is right around the corner, which means Halloween! Here’s a special and spooky treat: a list of project ideas to have the best haunted house and craftiest costume!
DIY Decor
AccuQuilt has several Halloween-themed GO! Dies, but you can easily create October decor with the following selections:
Each of these dies features plenty of fun patterns, like the GO! Boo Halloween Table Runner for the GO! Halloween Medley Die, but let’s highlight a few others!
The first place to start is with the Pumpkinness Table Topper!
This cute pattern is perfect for fall, and you can easily adjust the colorway using GO! Quilt to fit your preferences.
You can definitely show that you’re ready for October by creating the GO! Gnarly and the Ghosts Wall Hanging and Placemats.
This fun dual pattern is easy to make with your kids or grandkids as a fun activity before or after carving pumpkins.
You know what else looks great on a Halloween-ready table? The GO! Halloween Bowl Cozies, of course!
These festive bowl cozies will keep your hands safe when handling a hot mug or bowl while keeping your table top free from dishware burns, too.
Looking to make a unique decoration without using a pattern? Try making trees out of felt with the GO! Fall Medley and other leaf dies!
Don’t forget to add eerie embroidery designs to spice up your Halloween applique shapes! AccuQuilt also has purchasable embroidery for other dies to fit your decoration theme.
Look at how adorable the Halloween versions of Sunbonnet Sue and Overall Sam are!
They're just as cute as the Cute Car and Halloween Train embroidery designs!
If you love gnomes, you're in luck with V-Stitch Designs' Halloween Gnome!
