Fabric Pumpkins

Usually once a month the ladies at our church get together in an organization called Relief Society and have an activity. Each month it's different - sometimes it involves cooking, sometimes crafts, sometimes learning about different cultures, doing compassionate service work, or even just sharing stories with each other over yummy food! Tonight it was all about Fall. Fall chocolate treats...
...decorating pumpkins with vinyl cutouts, and fabric pumpkins. I was asked yesterday to fill in for someone - my only instructions were to do something that involved fabric, pumpkins, and make it easy!

So this is what I came up with...(to give you an idea on the sizes, the middle one is about the size of a closed fist)






Aren't they cute??! If you can make a fabric yo-yo then you can make these. Super easy, and very decorative. I would like to make a ton of the little ones and have them all in a bowl on a table. If anyone is interested, I'll do up a tutorial for them. The ladies had great success making them and so can you!
