Tutorial: Vintage pumpkin fall pillow

The pumpkin applique on this pillow is made of scraps of vintage fabrics. Bev from Flamingo Toes shares a tutorial – and a template – for making it. The vintage fabrics and the pom pom trim are a fun twist on a fall themed pillow. The pillow cover has an envelope closure on the back. When fall is over, you can easily slip the cover off and replace it with a Christmas themed cover.
