WHY NOT? WEDNESDAY

THE GREAT PUMPKIN

How cute is this?



I don't like Halloween.  I usually avoid it like the plague. After all the kiddies have finished coming to the door, we go out for a nice family dinner .  I do however, like all the fall colours that come with the occasion. So........ I made this little mug rug. Why not?   It measures about 6" x 10".  



  The tractor was my dad's when he was about eight.  The chair it's sitting on has been mine since I was three.  I love that chair.   Soon my little grand children will be sitting on it.


The pumpkin was made by sewing folded squares to the corners of the orange fabric, then turning back the fold and appliquéing it down. The rest is just 2 1/2" squares.   There are enough squares left over to do a table runner or something.  

Just in case Dawn thinks I have forgotten about her, 2 more blocks : )


Thanks for stopping by. Have a great Wednesday.
