After watching a few videos on YouTube, I thought I would have a go
at covering a polystyrene pumpkin which I bought on eBay with a
piece of fabric left over from a fat quarter.
It turned out to be quite simple, with the bonus of not using any glue.
I started by removing the stalk and making the centre hole bigger using scissors
and a chopstick!
Next, I placed the the pumpkin onto the fabric and started bringing the sides
up to the centre, using the chopstick to press the fabric into the hole.
Lastly, I placed the stalk back into the pumpkin to finish.

I added it to my autumnal display, which includes the crochet pumpkin and
memory sock pumpkin which I made last year.
The details of how I made the pumpkins can be found HERE and HERE
The polysterene pumpkins came in a set of three, so I think I'll use some
different fabric to cover the other two.
