Fabric pumpkins are designed mainly for home décor. This is a good idea for you to live in a room full of Halloween atmosphere. You can also use them as pincushions. If you will like them, then follow our fabric pumpkin tutorial in your free time.
 Steps
  1. 1
    Cut the felt. Cut out 14 pieces of crescent-shaped felt and 2 pieces of crescent-shaped fabric; the size of felt decides the size of your pumpkin. You will see two colors matched pumpkin in the pic below; Fold two pieces of crescent-shaped felt; sew their interior side; Repeat sewing the rest. Combine the sewn felt in a circle by sewing the exterior side one by one; add the two fabric pieces at the middle; leaving a small opening.
  2. 2
    Stuff the pumpkin. Then a pumpkin shape will look like this. Fill quilting inside through the opening with pliers so the pumpkin becomes bulged; sew the small opening.
  3. 3
    Make a stem for pumpkin. Cut out two pieces of felt for pumpkin stem; sew along the edges, leaving a small opening for stuffing. Sew the opening after the stuffing. Sew the stem to the top center of the pumpkin. Then fabric pumpkins are finished.
