~Vintage Pumpkins~

I found some vintage material at Hart's Fabric Store and wanted to make something for Halloween. 
I used different size bowls as my pattern for the pumpkins.
I stitched around the pumpkin so I could pull the thread tight to close it.
I used kitty litter but you can also use rice or beans. 
It is a good idea to have some weight to the bottom of the pumpkin. I only filled 1/3 of it.
I stuffed the top part with poly-fil and placed the chalk in the middle and stitched it closed.
I found different accessories at the craft store to use for the stems and embellishments. 
I love the vintage material.
Hope you have fun with this project!
