Fun for Friday - Pumpkins! Pumpkins! Pumpkins!!

Happy Friday!  This past week has been all about pumpkins.

I went to Norma's last Friday for the first pumpkin making session.

Here is our work area on her lovely porch. 

Sneakers came by to look over our progress.  I love Norma's green batik pumpkin.

Here is the crop of pumpkins we made.  The Pattern is Lil Punkins, A Tiny Treasure pattern from Sweet Treasures.
Designed by Amber Hiebert.

Here is a close up.  They each have a distinct personality.

On Wednesday, Jill and Susan came over to make some with me.

We even had pumpkin soup for lunch.  I made grilled Swiss cheese sandwiches on cinnamon raisin bread.

Here is the crop from Wednesday.   Coco was quite interested, as she always is.

What a fun batch!

Here are some more close ups.  We used real tree branches and pieces of floral picks and made our own curly vines.  We also added cinnamon sticks and whole cloves to the stuffing to make them smell good.

Here is a special one that I made with my new Midnight Pastoral fabric.  Very Martha Stewart, if you ask me.

Lastly, this is a football snack that made on Sunday.  It was so easy.   A package of corn muffin mix and package of hot dogs. 

Make corn muffins according to mix directions.  Spray a mini muffin tin with Pam and fill 2/3 full with mix.

I heated the hot dogs in the microwave just to take the chill off and cut them into 1 1/2" pieces and pushed them into the mix.

Bake according to the muffin mix directions and viola' little bite sized treats.

Happy Harvest and Football Season Everyone!!  Have a Fun Weekend.
