Project Complete

It took forever but I FINALLY completed my fabric pumpkins! I can't tell you how happy I am that A: I have them done and B: I really like how they turned out! I made a total of six pumpkins but am only keeping three. Maybe I'll get around to making another batch next year. Hopefully they'll take less than two months to finish!

Rae! These are so cute! Just love it. And you could almost change out the ribbon colors for Christmas! :)

Or, what about Christmas Snowmen :) I may have to try this.

Hi Rae~
I love your pumpkin pillows! They are SO beautiful! :) And I can't tell you how relieved I am to hear that I am not the only one who takes a while to finish things! Sometimes even a simple project can take me two weeks because of all the things that HAVE to get done instead! :)

Have a wonderful day! :)

They're so pretty!! I find the hardest thing is to actually start a project. The pumpkins come together quickly after that!!
