This is a "medium" pumkin. It in on a one inch grid cutting mat.

You can see the sculping lines going around the sides, and you can see the tops secured. Leave a little hole for the stems if you wish to put the stem into the pumpkin. Otherwise you can hot glue it on.

Decorate the tops any way you wish! and use whatever fabric you wish.

Lots of different sizes are fun. :-)

You cut your fabric in retangles. Turn right side together and sew the strip into a tube like above. Turn right side out. Est. Fabric Size (you can make it any size you want!) :-) mini - 4"x 8 3/4" small - 6"x 12 3/4" med - 8 1/2"x 18" large - 10"x21"

Cut a piece of embroidery floss about 5-6 feet long. Divide it into 2 three strand pieces instead of the six as sold. Do a running stitch, close to the edge, with embroidery thread. Gather one end and secure. Do the other side, but leave it open for stuffing.

Stuff the inside of the pumkin till it's the right size for your taste. Pull the thread and secure it like you did the other side.

You need to use a LONG needle for when you are poking the thread through the middle to do the "side line sculping." This size needle is okay for small to medium pumpkins, but doll needles would work better for the larger pumpkins. We didn't have any, so we just crammed the batting flat and pushed it through. :-) Do 5-6 sculping lines around the sides of the pumpkins, depending on the size of the pumpkin. Pictures later if we do more pumpkins.
