This is a free design from Creative Embroidery magazine. It took about 8 hours to stitch our all the pieces and a full spool of orange thread. Way more involved than I anticipated when I began, but I love how it turned out. It stands about 5 inches tall and I tucked a battery operated tea lite inside of it. Real pretty at night.

Your Pumpkin turned out just lovely! I just saved this design but had no idea it was going to use this much thread! Guess I got to go shopping! LOL

I love it, esp the added bling wow!!!
Since it did not come with instructions (at least when I downloaded it) how did you connect the pieces? glued or sew them together or?
also what did you use for the stem?
Thanks

I couldn't find the magazine with the instructions anywhere to purchase so I hot glued the wedges together. I used a small wooden bobbin for the stem.
okay thanks so much.

never mind, I found it in this months magazine. And the download is free. I really love the mat that it is setting on. That makes it, in my opinion. Can you tell us where you got that design? Thank you.
The mat beneath the pumpkin is a Kreative Kiwi design.
Thank you. I had not heard of this web site. Beautiful things there.
