4. Jack-O-Lanterns from Halloween Set III.
5. Black cats from Halloween Set I and Halloween Set III.

Step Two: Stitch out your designs so that you have 3 embroidered rectangles with vertical designs measuring 8" x 10", which includes a seam allowance of 1", and 2 rectangles with horizontal designs measuring 12 1/2" x 7 1/2", which also includes a seam allowance of 1".

Step Three: Out of patterned fabric cut out 2 strips measuring 10" x 3" including a seam allowance of 1". Stitch the strips to the rectangles with the vertical designs. This is Part A.

Step Seven: Now using two different kinds of patterned fabric cut 2 strips 29" x 3" for the upper and lower edges. For the upper strip we used fabric showing a cloudy night sky. For the lower strip we used a fabric with Jack-O-Lanterns. Stitch the strips to lower and upper edges of your banner.

Step Nine: Cut out a piece of felt for the backing, measuring 29" x 21 1/2". Place the backing on an even surface and cover it with your embroidered piece. Stitch (or machine stitch) both layers together along the seams.
