Happy Halloween! Have a Scary and Safe Halloween!

I am in full swing with fall now and can't stop making decorations with a pumpkin theme. My latest uses good old rick rack and spray paint to produce a Chevron Pumpkin. I started with project by pin pieces of rick rack to a piece of muslin. Then gave it a few coats of orange spray paint. Then removed the rick rack when it was dry. Lastly I traced a Pumpkin from the piece and sewed it to a old Dictionary page. Then framed in Black and it is perfect for Halloween! Enjoy! Linking up these parties!

I wasn't ready to start decorating for Fall since I feel like it is still Summer, but with the cooler temperatures Mother Nature is telling me it is fall. So I decided to make a quick fall craft to get me in the Fall mood. I started with some fabric from my scrap bin and a Pumpkin template. I cut a pumpkin from each fabric and adhered it with fusible webbing on to burlap. And then sewed it to a piece of muslin. Sewed a back on to the pillow and stuffed. My Modern fall Pumpkin pillows were done. Ready to enjoy inside.. and out! Enjoy!
