Tues Tutorial~ Patchwork Pumpkin Pillow Cover

 

To continue the Christmas gift I start for my daughters and grand daughters last Christmas of making couch pillow covers for each season, I have made one for fall, or as my grand daughter requested, Halloween.
 
So here it is. Whatever size you decide, just cut squares and half square triangles to the size you need.
 
We'll start with the square that makes the stem of the pumpkin.
