You've made quilts with bat designs on them for Halloween, but have you ever actually made a bat? Erika Mulvenna at WeAllSew has a fun tutorial for you to make your very own Spooky Halloween Bat that you can use to decorate your house for the ghostly season (and to leave up afterwards if you just want surprise people too!)

From Erika Mulvenna at WeAllSew:

"Make a cauldron of bats just in time for Halloween with this simple sewing tutorial. These spooky bats feature fuzzy, faux fur bodies about 6″ tall and wired felt wings about 15″ across.

Hang them in doorways or windows, or attach them to a wreath, chandelier, or mantle for that perfectly spooky Halloween touch.

The addition of wired chenille stems to the wings adds versatility to the bats, and you can pose the wings with a bend of the wire. But, because the wires can have sharp, pointy ends, these bats are best as decorations only, and not as toys for pets or young children. Make sure to keep your finished bats up and away from your little ones!"
