    3. Cathy P., who wrote, "So cute! love the girly bat.
    My 4-year-old daughter is going as a flower – I made the costume using an
    oversized green tee and some craft felt. I also knit a headband and added
    some more felt petals to it. My first time making a costume….but my
    daughter loves it!

    And my 4-month-old daughter is going as a bee (her sister's hand-me-down
    costume from BabyStyle)."

    "Here's a poem for you:

    There once was a girl named Heather
    She couldn't decide which was better:
    Christmas or Halloween
    On both she was quite keen
    In the end it was decided by the weather.

    Okay, it's not great, but at least I tried! I would love to win a little
    Betty Boo Sock Doll kit! So cute!"

    GhostlyGardenVelcome, my vriends, to the Ghostly Garden Cottage, where even the flowers can’t be trusted. Who says scary can’t be cute?

    To
    prove the point, meet Betty Boo. Some might say she’s a spoiled bat,
    but I think she’s rather sweet, as far as vampires go. Betty is
    not too cross to wear flowers — but she’s not too kind to sock-you-one
    either — so, stay on her good side.

    Come on inside — no tricks here, only treats. Don’t mind the carnivorous plants creeping out the windows.

    Today I’m handing out a NEW, FREE PATTERN —
    fun-to-make & easy-on-the-thighs. Click here to download my free
    pattern for a snappy little sock doll. Make your own mischief from one
    unassuming sock, wool-blend felt, and a few other bits & baubles from your crafting scraps.

    Halloween is coming right up. Charlotte will flit around as a 'Bat Fairy' and Elijah is ready to skip the costume this year — he's in junior high now. I'm sure he'll help eat the candy though.

    In celebration, on Monday, the 26th, I'm decking the halls with HoWls of fOlly
    for a Halloween Block Party with eight of the web's best food &
    lifestyle bloggers. Nine virtual haunted houses of culinary,
    craftiverous surprises await. Which of your favorite bloggers lurks at
    each haunted dwelling? What have the hosts and ghostesses prepared?
