Pumpkin t-shirt made using the Teresa Collins Chic and Scary cartridge

Hello, friends!

Today I have another fabric project that I made for one of my sweet nieces. The only problem is that if I make something for one, I will be making something for all of them. Which means I will be cutting pumpkins out in fabric this weekend!

The pumpkin is from the FABULOUS Teresa Collins Chic and Scary cartridge. This is this year's Halloween must have!

I made this the usual way. (Click here for my ==> FABULOUS Fabric Tutorial

I cut the pumpkin out at 7".
This is before the stitching...
This is after!

    Great job, so simple, but so darn cute. I haven't tried cutting fabric yet, BUT I will be going to town today:)
    I was terrified to cut, & work with vinyl. After watching you, & Joy, I pulled out vinyl(bought 3 years ago)& it was so easy & fun to cut.

    I really must try fabric in my Cricut. When making appliques, I usually like to stitch too. It's a neat accent and keeps applique attached.

    Very cute idea! And one that any young child would be lucky to wear! I agree that the added stitching was totally necessary.
