I made these 2 fabric pumpkins using the Crafter's Edge Beach Ball die cut. You just need to make 8 sections for the pumpkin (instead of 6 sections for the beach ball). Cutting the fabrics with the die cut and Crossover II die cut machine made this go much faster.
I added a cinnamon stick for the stem on both and a ribbon I tied around the larger pumpkin. The cinnamon stick makes a great stem and it smells like Autumn too. Maybe I should cut the cinnamon stick shorter on the smaller pumpkin?
Here they are and they look so cute and make a great decoration for Autumn.

This is the die cut I used to make the pumpkins. There are 2 sizes included.

ReplyDeletewow, adorable, great choice of fabrics and I love the cinnamon stick stem. having something to cut the pieces out perfectly would be very helpful.
