this beautiful fall craft project comes from d*s reader and photographer danielle thompson of the thompson family blog. she created these gorgeous fabric pumpkins as a last minute thanksgiving centerpiece of vignette- i love the way they let you use up bit of leftover fabric (and they won’t turn to mush if you leave them out too long!). CLICK HERE for the full project steps! thanks, danielle!

These are so cute, I’m definitely making these for fall decor! Great DIY.
These are BEAUTIFUL!!!! So colorful and crafty! I love these images Grace!
Love these – I remember my mom making something similar when I was a kid – can’t wait to try a couple in my favorite Autumn fabrics!
Wow, so adorable – you could almost do these anytime of year with different fabrics.
Very cute!
This tutorial is so thorough! I LOVE IT!
Who did it first? Martha Stewart or this gal?
jenna
if you read her description on her site she says she based her project on the martha stewart piece.

Oh man…I’m making one when I get home!
My mom also had stuffed pumpkins growing up, but had lost the pattern. These are perfectly adorable, love the floral!, and serendipitous.
What amazing color choices! Especially love the teal pumpkin. The photography makes my knees weak too.
Love these! I think I will have to go steal some old fabric from my moms house…
Realy nice idea. I think they can be easily used as sofa or as a decoration in the kids room :)
I had that red fabric with the little blue and yellow flowers like 10 years ago…
WOW! I would love to make these! Thanks to this link, I just put a new folder on my desktop titled CREATE!! …Guess what goes in it first? Thanks so much.
I was looking at Danielle’s site and I LOVE her ideas! The colors and photography, amazing!

Beautiful colours and fabrics!
