Cinderella Pumpkins

With Halloween now in the rearview mirror I will be busy making my pumpkins from the front porch into puree for the freezer. But, I've also been making pumpkins since the beginning of August. Sadly, it's proving the be one of those 'two steps forward, one step back' types of projects, one that's been hard to get some serious traction with.


I'm using the Laugh Yourself Into Stitches Cinderella Pumpkins pattern. It's well written, even if the first step for making HSTs includes the words "Trim to 1"!







But if you just take a deep breath and methodically work through the instructions, in no time you have several darling one-inch HSTs.
And shortly thereafter, a very nice rustic pumpkin.
