Good morning and welcome to the challenge!! Time to start our pumpkins! Love Kiss  

I'm attaching the pumpkin templates here.

Notes: There will be one extra block sometime next week. You can choose as many pumpkin blocks as you want to make. If you only want a center surprise block and two pumpkins on the end - totally ok!

I'm going to be working on the purple scheme, feel free to post questions or progress pictures. Using the 'my media' button will allow you to attach your pictures from your computer. Try to keep them under 500KB!

Picked up my fabric yesterday. Fabric A was an unexpected choice, but it's the one that called to me.

Prepping it today, then ready to create!

How is everyone doing on the pumpkins? I was hoping my new fabric would be here today, trying to be patient! Are there any questions?

Finally started sewing late last night. Two sets of leaves completely done, two partially done and four pumpkins halfway there. Can't wait to see what I can finish tonight. Hoping to have four pumpkins all done and ready to go.

Hi Leisa! 

I'm going to put up the next step for tomorrow - the surprise block comes out which is really the 'challenge' part of the runner. How did you do on your pumpkins?

@annjoy It took a minute to get the hang of it, then it was a breeze. I'm excited for the next steps.

@leisaj It's quite relaxing when you get on a roll with it. I probably need to share more tips on not wasting fabric, it took me a while to get that right. A light board is super helpful.

I'm excited to share the blocks tomorrow!
