Looking for a spooky-but-not-scary Halloween project? You have to try making this adorable patchwork ghost hand puppet! This tutorial from The Crafty Quilter is so easy to sew and makes the perfect little gift for young kids. The best part is you can use up all those small fabric scraps you have lying around, so it’s a great stash-busting project.
The ghost’s body is made with tiny 1 1/4″ fabric squares that you alternate between light and dark to create a cool patchwork effect. You can draw the ghost shape by tracing your own hand. It’s super easy to get the right size. For the eyes and mouth, you can use black fabric applique, felt, or even hand embroidery. It’s such a sweet and creative idea that will leave you with a cute handmade puppet just in time for Halloween!
