Easy DIY Fabric Pumpkin Tutorial

Directions

1. Cut the fabric with the length at least twice the width.
2. Fold the fabric in half and sew the short sides together by machine with a 1/4" seam.
3. Using a running stitch, go around one end of the fabric tube and pull the thread to draw the end of the tube closed tightly.
4. Turn the pumpkin right-side out and stuff it with fiber fill stuffing.
5. Use a running stitch to close the second opening tightly just like with the first opening.
6. Use coordinating embroidery floss to make the pumpkin shape by pulling the floss tight to make the pumpkin sections.
7. Cut leaves out of green felt and cut small strips of felt to make the curly stem.
8. Twist the stems around a pencil and stretch the felt a bit while wrapping, then tack the stem to the pumpkin to hold the twists in place.
9. Stitch the leaves onto the pumpkin by hand.
