Halloween Pumpkin Doll!

This pumpkin doll tricked and treated...

Stitch up this really sweet guy....who is has an easy to make mini quilt. This embroidery doll is very fast to stitch up....and makes a great addition to your Halloween decor. The quilt is super cute safety pinned to his hand or placed under the doll.

....or imagine the kids playing with these characters....more designs are coming very soon....a witch, Frankenstein, vampire, zombie and more!

The lil quilt is easy...and makes up quick.

This is the first in a series of Halloween dolls!

Finished Embroidery doll measures: 5 3/4" x 8"
Mini Quilt measures: 4" x 7"

I have made many witch mannequins from my pattern throughout the years....

Each one is different and has a different character....the mannequin fabric can be any halloween or fall fabric.  Making the skirt is really fun...and adding different embellishments are fun!

They are fun to make for gifts, craft shows, and for friends.
All the prim secrets are included in the pattern.

Poor Lucky got stung by a bee this past weekend.
He snapped at it and it stung his mouth.
He was swollen but in good spirits.
Now he is much better and I have very happy!

And that is for ANY spoonflower fabric...so I ordered myself some Johanna Parker fabric too...lol.

All of these are in the collection.
I love this black one with the whole Halloween gang.

The characters are sweet...not scary.

This one is my favorite. 
Here is a closeup of some of them.

Zinnias and bees...
I love this blue

Here is the green background

This one is surprisingly beautiful printed on fabric.

Pink!
This would make a sweet tote.
Crows are so majestic.
It is like there is an old soul inside them.

All these are in the shop....part of the crow collection....they all can be purchased separately of course.
I have always had a passion for pansies...I used to collect all china and vases with pansies....and my mom named one of our cats pansy because she had a pansy face.

Here are some closeups....
Sweet harmony....they were inspired by some cherry blossoms.

This is sweet and simple.

More closeups...of that collection.
I have a cats jumping over each other...

And this sweet little lady.

The monster squad is here

I spent some time this week making these cute Halloween dolls!
I really needed to just have fun and do something different....it was just the right set of projects.
THEY ARE ALL SOLD
These dolls are painted in stages...here are the dolls with a base coat.
My favorite is the mummy!
All my dolls are in my etsy shop: HudsonsHolidays
This is my Zombie girl....she is holding some brains....lol.
I made it from fabric and free motion stitching.
It was hard to keep her eyes looking vacant...I really wanted to paint them in.
She is wearing a badge that has a pinback on the back so you can wear it.

See her green glittery shoes!

She has green eyes and lovely green skin!
She also has a small broom...her ride!
He also has a pin badge...look at his teeth...lol.

Each doll has a detailed painted face.

he is a sweetie!
He has his favorite music in his pocket....and a monster mash bingo card.

Gray tabby cat...with fall on her mind.

Such big yellow eyes....and a leaf pin too.

Here they are on my steps....hanging out.

These two are besties.

This kitty has climbed a tree.

Two spooks, ready to pounce down on someone.

I hope you like seeing my collection...and they are ready for adoption.
If they are not in my etsy shop, that means they sold out.

Have a happy Sunday!
