Adorable Ghost Embroidery Design, Halloween Pattern, Instant Download

Tall draped ghost, big dark bow on top, sitting in a ring of autumn flowers. Kinda sums up the whole energy in one line. The ghost form is the classic sheet-drape silhouette, long and tapered at the bottom, with directional tatami fills that give it a slight linen texture rather than flat white. Two charcoal oval eyes sit in the upper third of the face. Solid. Blank. The bow perches on the very top, oversized and tied with a thick satin-stitched knot.

Below the ghost body, a wreath of flowers forms the base. Small golden yellow petals and tiny white daisy shapes. Spiderwebs extend outward from the left and right, stitched in thin outline threads that give them actual web structure rather than just blobs. Bats in the upper corners round out the framing. 4 colours total, which is why it runs so clean at every size. 9 ranging 3.5-7.5 to 7-in cap. Biggest at just over 31k stitches, smallest just above 1,000.

One customer told me she ordered three sizes of this design for three different projects in the same october. 7.5-inch on a black hoodie back, 5-inch on a tote front, 3.5 build on a trick-or-treat bag corner. Honestly thats how I built it to work. The minimalist colour count means you can repeat it without it getting loud.

Best results on black, charcoal, or deep navy cotton. Pair woven cutaway for tightly woven cotton, switch to cutaway on jersey or fleece because that drape silhouette doesnt hold well on stretch without it. Stitch the web sections at medium speed or the thread skips on those fine outline passes. Avoid pale cream grounds because the ivory ghost form blends right in and youll lose the whole silhouette. Pair with a small name stitch underneath if youre making a personalised halloween item. Only 4 threads to load so its quick to run off. Dont overthink the colour threading setup.
