"This is a fun make, creating decorative items you will bring out each year. Use up offcuts of waxed fabric from your stash for this one... I have given measurements for a small pumpkin, but do vary the sizes according to the pieces of fabric you have available, to create a fabulous array of one-off pumpkins. As an optional extra, why not use my Scrappy Leaves instructions (sold separately) to create added details, for a stunning autumnal feel?" - Natasha
