Fabric Pumpkins and Jack-o-Lanterns

It's a tiny fabric pumpkin patch!

I won't pretend like I'm not absolutely in love with these little guys. Sure, perhaps the stems are a bit long or skinny and maybe real life pumpkins don't really have green leafy stuff on top, but I'm no realist. They look like pumpkins to me :D


This one is by far my favorite. Isn't he adorable?


And one last group shot for good measure.


Inspiration found via Jessica's pumpkins at Twin Fibers and Mary's tutorial over at Craft Buds.

And in case you thought I wasn't a fan of the real thing, here are some jack-o-lanterns the roommate and I carved last night. Wicked cool. It may be a bit early but we don't care. When these guys start sagging we'll just carve some more! 

mine is on the left

It's raining now. Which means after a weekend full of beautiful weather I will be able to craft guilt-free tonight in the comfort of my dining room :D

I'm entering these pumpkins in the Celebrate Color home decor linky over at Rachael's blog Stitched in Color. As if you hadn't heard of it! I don't expect to win anything as there are some seriously awesome entries, but I thought it might be fun to participate :D

Also linking up with Megan's {Sew} Modern Monday, Jenna's Manic Monday, Kelli's Glitter Party and Quilt Story's Fabric Tuesday. Go have a look around! (or else... muahahaha!)

    your pumpkins are just wonderful! I think they look great with green leaves on top, too. Why let a little reality spoil our fun?

    I love these pumpkins! I think I could even get my non-halloween-loving boyfriend (he's British) on board with these!

    Those came out great! I've been wanting to make a few myself. If I do, I'll be adding green leaves also.

    I'm so glad that someone made fabric pumpkins this year. I didn't get to it! Darn. But, yours are definitely adorable!
