About this Spectacled Ghost with Celestial Teacup Pumpkins and Autumn Leaves embroidery pattern
Spectacled Ghost with Celestial Teacup Pumpkins and Autumn Leaves brings celestial and ghosts details into a hand-embroidery composition. Study the colored design and outline together before choosing which shapes to shade, outline or simplify. The supplied guide identifies these motifs: Large cream celestial teacup, white spectacled ghost in a purple cape holding a pumpkin, two side pumpkins, olive and purple leaves, gold stars, lunar symbols and black curls.
The colored image is a design reference. Thread, fabric and your stitch choices will affect the finished result. Preserve the open spaces around the smaller motifs and test difficult fills on a spare piece of fabric before stitching the main design.

Choose your hoop size
The outline pages are labeled for 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 inch hoops. Measure the printed design before transfer, because printer margins and fit-to-page settings can affect its dimensions.
The stitch guide recommends 8" / 20 cm HOOP for this design.
A larger version gives fine contours and clustered motifs more room. Select the size that preserves the details you want to stitch.

Stitching sequence
- Transfer and structural framework Mark cup ellipse, handle, glasses, pumpkin lobes, leaf veins, stars and lunar symbols; keep 1-strand black/gold guides light and symmetric.
- Main focal element Fill the white ghost in 3865/822; build purple glasses and cape with 3740/3041/154; keep eye spacing, bridge and facial outline crisp.
- Secondary large element Work the cream teacup and handle in 3865/822; add 680/3820 rim and moon motifs; shade all three pumpkins with 920/921/922 and 938 seams.
- Foliage / supporting motifs Fishbone olive/sage and purple leaves from center veins outward; stem-stitch crown stems and black side curls without pulling the fabric.
- Small decorative details Add gold stars, cup starbursts, lunar rays, small dots, leaf veins and pumpkin stem highlights; use mostly 1 strand so ornaments stay secondary.
- Final accents, dimensional details, cleanup, and blocking Refine cup ellipse, glasses circles and pumpkin seams; add controlled knots, trim dark carries, then block gently to preserve round hoop symmetry
