About this deal

Draw it through the middle of the pumpkin, right through the stuffing. Getting the twine through the stuffing may be challenging on the first pass, but it will be easier for the remaining stitches. Ring the changes of the seasons with this simple rustic felt pumpkin garland. Subtle enough to add a touch of autumn and not be garish, but with enough colour just to be noticed, these are a tasteful and rustic way of adding a little autumn charm to your home. These DIY felt pumpkins would be lovely in a Thanksgiving tablescape too, paired with some little acorns and fall leaf garland.

So it follows that I love fall-themed activities, food and decor too. Apple crisp and the first cup of hot chocolate after a cool walk or trip to the playground. An outing to a pumpkin patch, and this year Ezra has been begging to go to a corn maze. I’ve been having fun dreaming up some seasonal crafty projects for Fall and Christmas this year. I hope I manage to pull them all off. I tend to have no end of ideas but a very limited amount of time to execute them! Thankfully, I was organized enough to create these fun DIY felt pumpkins, with a free printable pattern to share with you!For the large pumpkin, print the pattern at 100%. For the small pumpkin, print the pattern at 80%. And I suppose for a medium sized pumpkin you could print at 90%, although I haven’t personally tried it.

Wrap the twine around a wedge, down it’s middle, and pull the twine through the pumpkin center again. Pull the twine taut, so that it squishes the pumpkin a bit and makes it bulge into a cute rounded pumpkin shape. Finish sewing up the seam. You can still add more stuffing using tweezers through the holes left at the top and bottom of the pumpkin. The length for the orange felt pumpkin garland is 1.2m long, and the width of the felt pumpkins is 5cm.Use 2 strands of matching orange thread and a running stitch (or blanket stitch) to sew two pieces of the pumpkin wedges together from top to bottom. They’d be absolutely perfect on a fireplace mantle with some other seasonal decor items (like this friendly ghost banner). We’re so hoping to get our fireplace installed this winter. I can’t wait to have a mantle I can style! As you may notice in the photos, on the larger pumpkin, I used a blanket stitch to sew the wedges together. On the smaller pumpkin I tried a running stitch and I much preferred it. But it’s up to you! The assembly process is exactly the same.

And here is the cutie pumpkin pictured with some cutie embroidered sugar skulls! You can find that DIY and free pattern here.

To prepare the leaf, use the heatnbond according to the manufacturer’s instructions to adhere the square of green felt and the green printed fabric. Then cut out the leaf through both layers. This is my favourite shop for buying good quality wool blend felt. The colours I used are Pumpkin for the large pumpkin, Nutmeg for the stems and Moss for the leaves. I used Butternut for the smaller pumpkin but I can’t find a link for it.

Use 2 strands of matching brown thread and a blanket stitch to sew around the stem on three sides. Gently stuff the stem and then sew it closed along the bottom. Here are the pumpkins keeping this little ghost banner company! They’re a perfect combo for decorating for Halloween. I’m not usually one for seasonal decorating though. The older I get, the less I can tolerate the clutter. I can barely handle birthday decorations being left up after the day!Now you can fill up the pumpkin with stuffing. Sew another 1/3 of the seam, and add more stuffing. Make sure to get lots of stuffing in to push out the seams and give the pumpkin it’s shape. And here they are paired with some adorable little birdies. Aren’t these so sweet for Autumn and Thanksgiving decorating?! Thread a long length of twine or yarn onto a large-eyed needle like a tapestry or weaving needle. (The twine I used is similar to this one. I found a small spool at my local craft store.) Yarn or another type of string would work too. I’m a big fan of using the supplies you already have on hand!
