I have seen some darn cute hand-crafted pumpkins this year. Starting with Mary Stanley's rug hooked pumpkins that I saw on Pam's blog and ending with the velvet pumpkins, glitter pumpkins, and now the doily pumpkins that she featured today from Allyson Baker. Holy Moly - it's a pumpkin palooza!
I bought these at MADE in downtown Lawrence. A store that features hand-crafted items. When I got home I realized that I did not have the name of the person who made them. Dang they are cute! I had to get 3 because I couldn't decide which one I liked the very best. If I wasn't otherwise occupied making felted acorns I might have tried to make these myself. Then again, supporting local pumpkin makers is as important as making them yourself. Right? I love the colors and patterns of the fabrics used for these pumpkins. They are going to look just perfect mixed in with the gourds and pumpkins I will be getting soon.
I went to Pam's and agree her il pumpkin is adorable. I told her you sent me. ;o)
I used to have three fabric pumpkins and they lasted for years, and were handed down to my daughter's family ... moral being, you'll get years of enjoyment.
