Thanks to Jane B. I have a source for the little wooden coffins that Shelly Tribbey had at Destination Dallas 2017. The coffins were to use in finishing these darling little Halloween pieces—the witch, Dracula, Frankenstein and the Bride of Frankenstein. (Put your mouse cursor over the photos to see details.)

But Shelly ran out of the coffins and apparently didn't plan to get more. So Jane did a little digging and discovered them at American Science & Surplus, item #94459P1, for $2.95 each plus shipping and handling. They need to be painted as they are unfinished pine, but they've arrived and Jane B. says they are perfect!

Thanks for the tip, Jane.
UPDATE: Shelly Tribbey herself remarked on Needlepoint Nation that these little wooden coffins vary a bit in size. She suggests you make a paper template to take to the store to check each coffin for the right one for your Halloween figure.
