I recently was given the privilege of testing Martine's lovely pumpkin quilt design. Here's my result: before the binding went on (when the sun was still shining) and after: when the natural light turned to a somber Autumn gray.

I love the way the stipple quilting makes the center pumpkins "pop".

The binding really isn't that florescent green; nor does it look so lumpy bumpy in person....

Think I will use this design again to make a runner for my dinning room table.

Thanks Martine! And thanks Cuties for looking.

It's terrific. Great work on both your parts. I love the way the pumpkins pop also. I think you could not go wrong with a table runner so go for it/Lillian

The embroidery file contains the design with the stippling. If you want to know what software I used, I digitised the pumpkins and the curly bit in the middle using Embird then added the stippling in 6D.

It is a lovely quilt block. I also like the stippling. Wish I had the luxury of an 8 x 8 hoop. Well done, both of you.
