Get Your Free Pumpkin Patched Tutorial
I've been having a bit of fun in the sewing room! 🧵✨
I created this simple Pumpkin Patched block tutorial that I would love for you to download for free! It's such a fun block to get creative with fussy cutting. 🍂🎃
What will you make with your Pumpkin Patched block?
A mini quilt?
A trick-or-treat bag?
A full quilt?
A table runner?
(All of the above!)

Today I'm cutting strips for a big batch of Pumpkin Patched blocks using a ruler that's made this so much faster.
I'm getting ready to sew a whole stack of these!

I want to show you how I web piece my quilt squares — this is such a fast, foolproof way to keep a big scrappy block organized from cutting table to sewing machine.
In this tutorial I'm using my Pumpkin Patched block as the example, walking through exactly how I label my columns, chain piece them together without losing my place, and press everything so the seams nest perfectly.
In this video you'll see: How I letter/number my columns so I never lose track of orientation
How to chain piece column by column without cutting your threads in between, so the whole block stays connected as one "web"
How I press alternating rows so the seams nest when it's time to join them
Where I place my low-volume vs. busier fabrics to keep the pumpkin shape reading clearly
My plans for turning this block into a lap quilt (or maybe a table runner — we'll see!)
