In The Hoop Jack O'Lantern cones were designed in three hoop sizes: 6x10, 5x7 and 4x4!

Each Jack O'Lantern cone is made in one hooping from inexpensive cotton prints.


They require one line of stitching to be sewn by hand upon completion.


Jack O'Lantern cones have a ribbon hanger which enables them to be hung from a doorknob, or back of a chair!  They make a great You've Been Boo'd! suprise!

They can be filled with candies or little gifts for Halloween favors.

Jack O'Lantern Cone for the 6x10 hoop

Jack O'Lantern Cone for the 5x7 hoop

Jack O'Lantern Cone for the 4x4 hoop
