Fall Pumpkins

Crab Apple Hills pattern
***************************************************************************************
This 12 1/2" diameter pumpkin has one embroidered segment that heralds "Autumn" with a garland of sunflowers. Two wool appliqued, embroidered & beaded segments, one with ruffly marigolds and the other rosehips. One patchwork segments & two crazy pieced segments with eleven small Autumn & Halloween images to embroider.
Fun to make..... above is our rendition of this fall pumpkin pattern. The wonderful earthy colors gives the feel and look of fall. The cording winding around and up is braided for the stem. Hand and, or machine embroidery, and applique' images give liveliness to the configuration ....One we genuinely admired was Cindy's addition of a squirrel.
Magnificent to behold all together,don't you agree?
We have purchased several Crab Apple Hills Patterns and find them pleasing. Would recommend their patterns highly.
