I appliqued all of the pieces on, but the stitching around those bats and letters was enough to drive me crazy! A lot of stitches were pulled out in this project, and re-done...I used some red jewel like buttons for the witches shoes to add some bling. I also have some spider buttons to sew on but forgot to do that before I took the pic.
