"Ghost Party" Halloween Placemat

How do you know a ghost has been to a party?

He’s 3 sheets to the wind!

I actually made that horrible joke up, but only after reading several equally horrible ghost-themed jokes.

Halloween is such a fun time isn’t it?! I ran into my LQS the other day to get some fabric for a swap I’m participating in at TSS, and I ended up coming away with several fat quarters of fabric from the Halloween section. I had a sad supply of black fabrics before, but I think I should be good for a while now.

I didn’t really have anything in mind, but the kids always need placemats for their lunches at school, and these were so stinking cute I decided to try and make some of my own.

I’m still undecided about making the kids’ costumes this year. They’ve changed their minds a dozen times already but currently one has plans to be a unicorn and the other a rainbow.

Surely I can find an already-made rainbow costume?

    Chrissy — these are adorable!! How fun!

    I hear you on the costume making. I hate to invest in the supplies and time it takes to make a costume and then they not like it because they changed their mind. It’s quite a quandary for me.

    Great joke too!
