Scary Halloween Pumpkin

"This scary pumpkin is easy and quick to make, and it lasts a lot longer than a real pumpkin. The eyes and mouth are appliques, and the pumpkin is "sculpted" by using small stitches to give its face a craggy, creepy look. The project comes with a full picture tutorial to help you achieve that horrifying appearance."
