Swapping- Halloween / Samhain/ Autumn Swap at Bits of Goodness
I just mailed off these fabric pumpkins for a swap at the Yahoo Group Bits of Goodness. I posted about the group previously HERE.
It is a Waldorf inspired group that runs swaps based on seasonal themes. It is a requirement to use natural materials. Now, I do not have children at home anymore but I do anticipate grandchildren someday so I am store-housing the goodies I get for them.
These fall pumpkins are based on a pattern from Wee Folk Art. If you are not familiar with the site, be sure to check them out. They are very generous with free patterns.
