The ghost outfit is sized for porch geese of 17, 23 and 27 inches: Small, Standard and Large. It is an intermediate project that takes about 3 h, in 10 steps. For a 23 in goose you need 1⅜ yd of white fabric. You will practice binding a neckline with ties, sewing a frill and lining a bonnet.

The ghost outfit starts with a sleeveless top. A closed white sheet with a slit goes over it and is bound in at the neck, then you add the ghost face and a lined bonnet with a frill and ties. It is the only goose outfit without sleeves, and it uses a single white fabric, 1⅛ yd for a 17 in goose up to 1⅝ yd for a 27 in.

Good for: Halloween and fall porch displays (more in Halloween and fall goose outfits).
