We did some shopping this morning at a garden centre and I just had to buy some pumpkins. When I put them on my serving platter, I remembered the
crocheted pumpkins I made last year. They match nicely with the ones I bought.
This reminded me of an idea I had last week to embroider a pumpkin. I wanted a raised pumpkin and tried the
raised chain. That didn't work, so I tried the
woven trellis this time and that worked. The stalk is a padded satin stitch, the curl a whipped backstitch and at the bottom I made a few detached chain stitches. I used perle 8 for my pumpkin and it's height is 2,5 cm (1 inch).

I didn't even realise some of those pumpkins were created at first ;p Clever you!
