REPLAY: Carve up a Fabric Pumpkin with Jenny and Misty

[Music] look at these guys you know chatting with the early jacquard yeah all right now I'm gonna turn my phone up so I don't look at it it doesn't know no distractions welcome everybody happy Tuesday I am Miss dieudonné and this is of course you guys want to do some cults you see some towns we just turned our pounds awesome I know but you saw before we got California South Carolina we all in San Jose California yeah San Jose my old stomping grounds Maryland Missouri Tennessee Texas Georgia Ohio Perry Ohio probably pretty too I love it I love it thank you guys so much for being here so we have a really fun project for you today you guys might recognize Jenni's fall shenanigans while hanging behind us and so we decided it was even more shenanigans even more why not have some more right guys why not have shenanigans at Halloween time that's right Halloween is just around the corner and so we have bacon the pumpkin from here yep okay so let me just give you a little background on this yes so pumpkin carving is huge in our family we have people who are like pumpkin artist Jake is a pumpkin are yes and so call me the pumpkin artist but but they'd love to carve pumpkins Alejo just love to do that and so one year I remember when all my children were gone and married and carving pumpkins with their own children I decided that never again in my life did I want to stick my hand in this inside of a gooey get all those part I know you guys still love it no I don't love it so I made a pump just a pumpkin wall hanging it had the pumpkin and and it was that's where actually where this came from so I made just the pumpkin but I put of course a happy smile and some nose and some eyes on here yes and and so we actually made some pronounced for you we did and so that you can see here we have four different faces and time out time out we got to fix the main can oh oh here we go wait I got here we go okay so we've got four different faces that you can print out and obviously you can mix these up and interchange their change in and make them however you would like so we've got a couple little jack-o'-lantern faces in this cute cat face and so you can print that off and also has this tin it has all the pieces and this is for free you can find all of these pages in the link in the description so be sure to check that out very very fun good with that I guess I should tell you what we're working with here so we tape pack of five inch squares this is called we almost just lost a cameraman back you can app what's that noise a little shenanigan safe marsha Hannigan's are happening all right Missy I'm gonna start I'm gonna start tracing and I'm gonna just tell you what we've got so we use a pack of 5 inch squares this is called Erie Hughes from Wilmington it's got all these fun blacks and oranges in it and we have those in stock we have those for you so the you can also get those in the link and then you're going to need some scrap of green for your stem and then we went ahead and also have some extra black fabric because you are gonna need a few additional five inch squares unless your charm pack has enough and ours just didn't well you're gonna need extra spur well card list actually misty had a really great idea yeah instead of so that you could just use this one charm pack because when I was putting this one together with just this one charm pack I was like let maybe like three and so so I thought well we could use these ones but if you just want to strip stick with this charm pack Misty's an idea was that we actually just cut these in half and this outer border is a skinnier border and then you actually end up with leftovers so that's kind of cool so you can either add the five inches all the way around five inch squares you'll just need a couple extra solids or if you have some black tone-on-tone stew mix in there you can add that as well and so you would just add a border of additional five inch squares around or you could add solid fabric around it but like I said just five inches so it gives you a frame around it just like you see here because we're gonna add our stem and then we're going to add so whoa and you stand alone so we're not making the wall hanging we're just making a pumpkin because I actually have this little space on my front porch that makes a darling I mean it's just a little space and I'd love to hang a quilt out there and actually have a quilt block that regularly they hang it out there close to my face with I'm sorry okay so mom's tracing right tracing she's picked her face and so now we're tracing this on some heat and bond and then we're gonna press this to our black fabric and I've I've tried to kind of scoot him close but you know you'll want to save your little parts out here so that you can see she's got two eyes a nose and a mouth and so now we're ready to press that yep is our iron hot yep so what you do on this is you're gonna rough cut so I don't actually I don't cut nice until I'm ready to I think you should trace the face to you you pick a face and trace the face right and then and we we are I'll just cut these out over here okay so for those of you who don't know I know Halloween is celebrated in all countries either but it is celebrated in the US and I guess we have always had a lot of fun with Halloween because my background is in costuming and so a lot of times our family will pick a theme and then everybody dresses to that theme and our house becomes that and we do a lot of really fun things with it and we do a lot of Halloween decorating my husband gets really into that one year we had like these you know how you can buy those giant fuzzy spiders and we put those on the house and one year we had skeletons climbing up over the side of the house one year we turned the whole front of the house into a pirate ship and Ron even made cannons it you know they were those those old what are those call Jake those oh yeah the potato guns yeah those but he put he put flour in him so they would like just shoot up milk and it looked like it was a regular ship cannon a pirate ship so we've done some really fun things and this is they want to know what the theme is this year we don't actually have a book we need to pick that we we haven't picked it yet and I realize it's late one year we picked clowns we were the dome Family Circus and we did giant red and white striped fabric across we have this old Victorian and we did it all the way across the front of the house and around the side turns out not everybody likes clowns yeah people were afraid to come they were so my son-in-law Seth was the tall man and he had a pair of cheap rock stilts yes and he can you know he can walk on those really easily but it literally makes like that his legs come up to here on me so he's so tall up there and he would come out with this giant bowl of you'd come lumbering out you know to the kids and offend way down like this with this big bowl of fruit little children home fruit scream and run away so this year actually we've had a we've had several thoughts about themes this year and and we have two were currently working on our right and I already have our costumes but but I don't know that it's gonna turn into a theme it might just be one of those years where the theme is Halloween and everybody gets to dress up in whatever they want because I'm pretty sure most of the kids and the grandkids already have their costumes and nobody's really coordinating this year so everybody's impressed you're cutting right handed oh well you know why because I never owned a pair of left-handed scissors I also Bowl right-handed because there was not left-handed bowling balls when I was growing up so I was one of those I'm one of those people still where you get what you get and you don't throw a fit and you just learn how to do it she's a big girl I'm a make do girl so I always cut right-handed here mister you can actually just cut a little piece off of here I am I'm gonna see what my what my pumpkin looks like with his happy face and what's fun about this is that you will see this go from all of a sudden it just squares come together and it doesn't really look like a pumpkin too much and you'll see it change right before your eyes it's like a little magical tricks and so um so I'm going to put my face on who you so you can see it but I want you to look at this because you can do your pumpkin this way or you can do something this way so just remember you can do whatever you want so we actually have four in a row four times four is 16 and the corner what what happened okay so watch this and does this need to be a certain direction so they can see it break the right way you're good okay watch this now all of a sudden look what's happening it's so cute and this guy looks like a pumpkin isn't that so cute jack-o'-lantern yeah little jack-o'-lantern now if we do it this way we can do it here like this and we have a little we have a little cutout here for a stem right here a nice big fat stem and so I'm going to I can actually put that in the middle of my oh no this is all black so see how I have this right here I mean literally we all know triangle eyes triangle nose or circle eyes circle nose you know circle mouth you can get a lot of faces out of here and so I didn't conserve my heat and bond very well even if you just had a plain square you could take with some heat and bond and some black fabric let your kids cut out their faces and press it on and you could have these cute little pumpkin you could and think if you did this like in two and a half inch squares yes you know so this this day actually really feels all about possibilities because if we did these in tiny little squares I mean this is good wall hanging it's gonna be about this big and you're gonna have little pumpkins it would be really fun to let your children decorate that's something I so would have done I would have done I would put a little clothesline up I would have hung them all on the clothesline it's so cute you know have all these little things and on my original one that I did because I'm not really great at machine quilting I mean by myself actually what I did was I sewed in the ditch on all these squares and then I just filled in with some lines so they call that straight line quilting and that's about as fancy as I get with machine quilting that's that's not really something I'm very good at [Music] yeah actually there's a there's a we actually just had a class with Karen Miller Karen Miller no more I feel I really enjoyed it but I feel like I have so much more to learn Oh see I wanted to take the class my husband got to take the class but I couldn't take the class so so it's really fun so I don't want to iron these on because I want you guys to see what misty space looks looks like Misty's pumpkin pit Misty's pumpkin face she's cutting out hard all right what I'm gonna do right now is I'm actually gonna cut a few of these in half so I could you can see what that looks like with a little bit of a border now the only place if we're gonna have trouble with this little border I think he's up here by the stem but you'll notice on a lot of pumpkins that stem you know comes down in the middle so I think we can actually just set it on there lower it looks like we got the band back together on YouTube what does that mean you got Joyce we got copper we got cream puffs oh my gosh who was who was the Linda is Linda on because the close-ups are back what's the closest what does that mean she loves Isis yeah she just liked the clothes she likes it she likes a good clear shot oh nice I think everybody likes a good clear shot true can we hear it for a good clear shot right do you know this is some you guys may not know this but originally oh yeah I have a neat Smitten Kitten that's true originally when we started filming we had one little camera that we used right in front of us like this they would stand her in film literally this was our overhead shot they would hold very still and they would just bend from the waist and show the overhead shot excuse me and I was just like oh my gosh you guys you know we got to do something about this all right so let's look it up here all right let's get a close-up on this see I'm doing my little do my little border I'm just cutting out whiskers over here cutting out whiskers oh you're making the kid wanting the cat why not cuz why not I'm pretty sure you know we're gonna have a corner on here on one of these so see how this is already framing this up this right here so I have it I have it moved on the other side but it's just framing it up I would put a solid black binding around it because that's gonna frame the whole thing but this makes a great little thing to hang in your window you know it's just a fun quick little project with cats in the witches hats judy has an awesome tutorial for this full one but we wanted to just you know open your for your eyes to even more possibilities so we've made this little jack-o'-lantern and you can also you could add a face to this one and it would be so cute now I have to tell you I've seen some cute pumpkins online yeah and right in the middle of the pumpkin they'll have like a quilt block oh and then build that around that and you know what I thought about doing and I I find had time yesterday I would have made one ahead of time but I didn't but I thought about making this kitty you know the kitty block because it's it's still based on pre-cuts and it would fit right here in the middle and then build the pumpkin about that so you'd have the cat and then you'd have the pumpkin around it so if anybody does not please post a picture a picture because I would love to see that I think that would have been a really fun thing to do alright now one of the things you're gonna need because see how this goes along here this little border and you have these little quarters out here you're gonna need to take you know your your five inch charm pack you've cut in half oh look what I'm doing I'm sorry she's a wild forgive her I'm closing my room close the rotary cutter you know Jacob a quarter makes me pay if I leave my ribs in the jar there's a rotary cutter generator like some people have the swearing jar we've got we got a jar no swearing just a lot of other together collectively anyway so I cut a charm pack five inch square in half to make two and a half by five for my little borders and then for the corners you're gonna cut that in half again so you're gonna have four two and a half inch squares and I would probably just do that with you know with one block over here in here over here I got to mix this up cuz these two are the same they're a little different yeah so then we got the bottom over here and of course you're just gonna so Cindy we're saying what are we called a few just like that's just like the so the tops together but don't actually quilt it Peter you're Peter and those are actually called flimsy x' really yeah when you don't when you don't quilt it it's called a flimsy and and I think that's a really fun word and so I know a lot of people who do shows in the industry they don't quote their quilts because that you can actually carry more to show if you don't have them quilted however when you quilt a quilt when you quilt when you quilt a quilt all of a sudden that quilt looks it hey Brit it gives it like it's like any it's just breathe life into it there we need this stem okay wait actually you know what I'll cut out the stem because I want you to make your face because I know it's gonna bring you lots of happiness right let's do it that's gonna fill your your heart with joy on this day lost in here ear down those fears I thought that your we're eyebrows fixers you know what you guys this could be this is a take off from the old mr. Potato Head that's right who remembers mr. Potato Head because you can put a knee and your mouth is so cute wait let's see what this kitty looks like with the big smile yeah see if he has it oh wait here do this angry is the angry kitty what if we do this oh there you go this out here once we do this see put the Eiger on there you go Oh many option it's just like mr. Potato Head Kitty squinting eyelashes eyelashes oh my god so you it's just I just think you guys you know if you've got little kids I think this would be so much fun to do with your little kids absolutely and and take some time and change them around to see what they want let it cut out their own shape that's right you don't have to use these printables we gave it to you so you would have it as an option but what your creativity shine all right let's face it here let's face it Missy it's not just for kids we're having a ball we're having way too much fun and I have no doubt that the minute this is over all these guys are gonna want to come up here and make their own faces on here we'll share them so on the UM Oh that'd be fun wouldn't it so on this - what you want to remember is that um I forgot what it is that you want to remember what you do not want to forget you do not want to forget is it's okay we'll come back to it it'll come back I'm sure I am so sure so this stem remembers somewhere in the world there's a pumpkin with a big stem there's thumb this with smaller stems make any size stem you want that's probably wise anyone and no that wasn't it at all but like you could put it here you know if you want a shorter stem if you just want it to be like yeah like you know up here and then come up on the top you can do that okay let's say oh should we turn brain stem that's good what's going on here was it you can do the green you can do brown you can do whatever whatever color you want purple for all we care I don't think we can lift this isn't this glued down no just barely alright there we go okay now rotate his face they're wondering where the stem is coming from it's just a scrap piece of fabric and yeah it's on the printable yeah so the stem is on the printable and I just cut this one in half so I'm gonna cut out a tall one again but um so just remember it can be any size you want yeah so this is just a so originally I made this whole thing with scraps you know I had it we all have leftover oranges and blacks if we've done any Halloween sewing at all and so I made it with scraps and so my stem was just a piece of green or brown that was a scrap as well and so here is here's a little stem right here I love it too it's so fun don't you want to make like 20 faces yeah let's do it did you guys say out loud that you can velcro the back of those or did they just say to the chat crow what they said face oh what a grant I got ya is it funny yeah you definitely don't want to make um you don't want to iron those down if you do yeah so if you're going to bail crow them right what I would do is I would trace out two of these and I would or you kind of want him a little bit stiffer yeah he's gonna say you could use like batteries between or interfacing do two of them you could actually iron the two together yeah because of this one if we use the fusing on this and put another one on it that has fusing also there maybe there'd be double fuse and it would be it's stiff and you could actually do this as a learning fun [Music] well snaps are cute but I mean you could do buttons for that yeah that's true so buttonholes spend a lot of time you know I'm not a buttonhole me know so if I make its ruse first time online and we have a roof up here both of them yeah we're this actually the roof who's up here is that really it black felt oh you black felt would be great too great great idea there's so many smart people out there Andrea's first time life to Andrew Andrew you Andrea oh and RIA I love it but wait watch this what how dare you if you chance to meet a frown do not let it stay quickly turn it upside down and smile that frown away that's a little song I used to sing to my children yes so when my children argued I made them sing their arguments to each other that's true and somehow she got her kids to actually do this but I'm still as a mom baffled by how that happened I'd be like you can argue if you want to but you're gonna have to sing that I can't believe you stole my shirt I hate you I hate you I hate you they'd be laughing at Megiddo that does not work in my house but you should try it with widget may I say Jake you got something to say to me you're gonna have to say it miss song yeah sing it to me he like he makes up songs a lot and definitely yeah I saw a good idea if you did the pumpkin out of grace and then did it cutouts with orange it would look like nighttime with the face oh well and remember think about all the different colors so pumpkins that have now beautiful like green and almost pink looking ones they're very fun well and you could actually do like the you know and pumpkin with the light behind it has it kind of yellow yeah that's true they're gorgeous options yeah all right that's it really we just wanted to show this fun idea to you guys and give you a little bit of halloween inspiration as it's creeping up next week this is such free wake up creepy glow in the dark fabric i know we have had some in the past i don't know we have fabric that has some glow-in-the-dark in it like then we have a space fabric that has some glow-in-the-dark things like that i don't
