About this pattern

These pumpkin pincushions are great fun for the Halloween season, but also double up as useful pincushions.

Designed by Ellen Kharade, each pumpkin has been made up of eight lozenges shaped segments, which when sewn together, create the recognisable shape. The pumpkins can be stitched up in no time using scraps from your sewing box, so would make a great gift for a stitchy friend.
