    Step 1: fold the fabric in half and sew the short edge. With a running stitch gather the bottom edge, pull up tight and fasten off, do the same with the top, fill with stuffing.

    Step 2: take the string ( use it double if you want to), start at the top and go through the middle, out at the bottom and then back in at the top ( so the string shows on the outside of the pumpkin, repeat this 6 times, making sure the 'segments' are equally spaced.

    Step 3: take the fabric for the stork, fold in half and sew then turn right side out, stuff and sew the bottom edge. And then with a hot glue gun (you can sew if you'd rather) stick the stork in the top of the pumpkin. You can always make different sizes, have a look at the ones below, I even made one using hologram fabric!

    Hi everyone, yes we know it's a little early, but we are super excited about this cute halloween bag we have decided to share it with you early! This is a really quick project to do, so simple and versatile. We used the A4 Dovecraft felt for this project. You can find all of our felt products here. For this project you will need, some orange & black felt, scissors, 50cm of ribbon, and you can either machine sew or hand sew this!

    Step 1: Cut 2 pieces of orange felt 13.5cm x 13.5cm. And cut 3 pieces into 13.5cm x 4cm wide.
