Tutorial: Witch silhouette Halloween pillow

Melissa Mortenson from Polka Dot Chair shares a tutorial for making this witch silhouette Halloween pillow. The silhouette on a white oval background looks like old timey cut paper silhouettes, or perhaps even a cameo. She includes a template for making the witch silhouette. A spider hanging from the witch’s hat is made with a button and hand stitching.
