Easy Pumpkins

Some Easy Pumpkins to make

 Pumpkin 1: this is made in a kind of quilt method.
First, cutting out leaf shaped pieces of fabric and then sewing the edges together.
Second, stuffing the pumpkin with a little stuffing...
And then sewing up the hole with a quick stitch around the top.
I added a scrunched up bit of felt for a stem.
Pumpkin 2: less sewing
First, cut out a strip of fabric then fold it in half with the wrong side out.
Sew along the edge and make a quick stitch all around the bottom and pull to scrunch it together. Do the same for the top after putting in some stuffing. 
In this picture you can see i added some thread around the sides to try and create a more recognizable pumpkin shape. 
Then i just added a sparkly pipe cleaner that I had lying around.

Pumpkin 3: the easiest (no sewing involved)
Simply get some scrapbook paper
fold it in half
cut a curve, leaving the fold intact 
glue the back sides of the paper together i had about 4-6 sheets per pumpkin
to make a stem simply cut out a rectangle or a curved rectangle, cut a slit in the bottom and slide it on the top.




Sorry I have no "in the process" pictures...maybe this year.
