Sew Halloweenie


I have been sewing like a crazy woman around here lately.
I gotta tell you first that I am preparing for a big show this October
so I am eagerly getting things ready! I usually make something sewn.
I have made mini pumpkins and some mixed media felt pumpkins...so I thought I
would try something different.

These pumpkins are super easy to make - the best and most fun is choosing the fabric.
I tried to stick with colors that "REPRESENT" halloween but could still
work with HARVEST & FALL - do you see it? I hope so.

I created my own pattern and just cut out the fabric and sewed up the edges
leaving an opening for the stem. For the stems - I think this is how I
add some character---I used burlap to create my stems & leaves.
I love the way these came out.

What do you think?

What are you up to these days?

I am linking this up to the following parties:


Hope you have a fabulous Tuesday!
