Spooky Cuddle® Halloween Sew-At-Home Costumes, Projects and Inspiration

Written by Ellen Mickelson | Oct 30, 2020 5:40:20 PM

Here at Shannon Fabrics we love any excuse for a holiday (we also love any excuse to eat candy, of course)! While Halloween might be different this year for many of us, there is no reason we can’t celebrate the holiday with some good old-fashioned cheer. Whether you partake in Halloween or not, we wanted to share some fun costumes and projects to make you smile.

These projects were created with a wide variety of Shannon Fabrics Cuddle® Solids and Prints, Luxe Cuddle®, and even faux fur.

We used a number of patterns from Funky Friends Factory, Retro Mama, Happy Heart Patterns, Simplicity Patterns and more. Most items are stuffed with our favorite polyester stuffing from Fairfield World.

Without further ado, here are some irresistibly-cute and not-so-spooky costumes made with Cuddle® minky plush fabric!
