New Project #6: Mini Pumpkins!

Instructions (Online version):

Core – (Cream) Divide in ½.  Roll each section into a 2” wide ball and prick with the felting needle until it holds together.  

Outside – (Orange) Divide in ½; Wrap each ½ around a ball and felt it into place.

Ridges – (Orange Floss) Cut in ½ (about 10”). For each ½, put a knot at one end, and use a large-eyed needle to thread the other end.  Starting at the center bottom of each pumpkin, pull the thread through the pumpkin so the end is hidden, then bring the threaded needle back down through the pumpkin next to this spot and remove the needle.  Separate the 6 threads of the embroidery floss, and for each thread, thread it on the needle, reach it around to the top center of the pumpkin and bring it down through the center of the pumpkin.  When finished, all 6 threads should be coming out the bottom of the pumpkin.  Thread these once again on the needle, bring through the pumpkin to the top, knot, trim, and push back into the pumpkin.

Stem – (Green) Using ½ the green, felt to the top of the pumpkin, either in the shape of the stem or the shape when the stem is broken off.
