Pick a Pumpkin Blog Hop

Pumpkin Spice & Everything Nice!

Welcome to the 
Pick a Pumpkin Blog Hop 
hosted by Carla at 

Today is my day to share with you what I have created for this fun hop.  Carla wanted us to do something with pumpkins, so I made a happy little table runner based on the Pumpkin Seeds quilt by The Pattern Basket. 



This is about as simple as it gets. I used 2 1/2" scrappy squares to make my pumpkins.  The hardest part is picking your color combinations. I made my table runner even easier by changing pattern slightly.  I made the stem a 2 1/2" square and only made one leaf.

Because it's not a Halloween quilt, I chose to use colors more suited to my decor.  I love the pastel hues, don't you?  With this pattern you can choose to put the star anywhere you like -- high, low, middle, or not at all.  I staggered mine for a little variety.  The overall size of this table runner is approximately 15" x 39".

I hope you have enjoyed seeing my project.  If you would like to make your own Pumpkin Seeds quilt you can find the pattern at the Fat Quarter Shop or www.thepatternbasket.com. 









Thank you, Carla, for hosting this wonderful blog hop.  I love everything pumpkin and enjoyed making this tribute to them.
But wait!  
There are more pumpkins coming your way!  
Go visit these talented bloggers and see what they have in store in you.

    Very nice. And teal pumpkins denote a house that has non-candy items for Halloween so it works for Halloween, too. :)

    Great idea for using mini charm fabric bundles or cut our own for fun pumpkins in a table runner or quilt.

    The pumpkins look great in your colors, and I do like the pattern. I was looking at her shop but haven't found the pattern yet. I'll keep looking. She needs a search box. Or if she has one, I need to find it! =)
