Etsy Spotlight – Witch, Please! This Handmade Doll is Halloween Magic

October 5, 2025 by Shellie Wilson

It’s Sunday, which means it’s time for another edition of our Etsy Spotlight Series here at CraftGossip.com—where we cozy up with the handmade treasures that make our crafting hearts skip a stitch.

This week? Oh, we’re getting spooky (but make it adorable). Say hello to the Witch Doll Pattern and Sewing Tutorial—a handmade Halloween project that is equal parts cute and cackling.

This isn’t some spooky, shadowy figure from your nightmares. No, this witch is adorably mischief-ready with a flair for the handmade. Think cozy spellbooks, crooked smiles, and a wardrobe made from your favorite fabric scraps.

She looks like she just stepped out of a whimsical woodland Halloween party—and yes, she brought the potion cupcakes.

The pattern comes with a full sewing tutorial, so whether you’re a confident stitcher or a beginner who’s more “wand waver” than “needle master,” you’ll find your groove quickly. It’s all laid out in the most magical way.

There’s something extra special about hand-sewing your holiday decor, and this witch doll fits right in with your DIY pumpkins, quilted bats, and cauldron cozies (don’t lie—you’ve thought about making one).

Use her as:

A Halloween shelf sitter

A trick-or-treat table mascot

A spooky season gift for your witchy best friend

Or even as a “familiar” for your black cat (just don’t let them steal her hat)

Honestly, she’s so charming I might just leave her out year-round.

Every Sunday, we remind ourselves why we spotlight Etsy sellers like this: because behind every digital pattern is a real human pouring love, creativity, and a little magic into their small business.

At CraftGossip, we believe in lifting up makers who keep the world of handmade alive—and we love helping our readers find their next favorite project in the process.

So if Halloween is your happy place, or you’re looking to start a seasonal tradition that isn’t just candy and chaos, give this little witch a place in your home.

Grab the Witch Doll pattern here and stitch a little Halloween magic this season.

Easy Cosmetics Bag Sewing Pattern

The bag is simple, uses very little fabric (about 2/3rds of a fat quarter), has no fussy inside pockets (although you can add your own if you like), and takes me well less than 30 minutes to print the pattern, cut out and sew. But quick and simple doesn’t mean it’s not awesome!

It’s the sort of bag that is versatile enough to be used for lots of applications, not just cosmetics and toiletries. Keep all your pens and pencils in order, use it for a small first aid kit for the car, keep it in your desk at work for a few headache pills and other personal supplies.

Make some for yourself, for gifts or to sell.
