hummadeedledee: Desperately Seeking Sweet Sweater Pumpkins?!

It never fails. Every year at this time,

the blog stats blow up with visits from ALLLLL over,

from people searching for my original creation,

'Sweet Sweater Pumpkins' ' TM

Since 2007, they've been a HUGE hit!

Every fall, my blog is inundated with hits for the tutorial that I shared here years ago.
MANY people have bought it and made their own pumpkins.

I started up a new DIY seasonal home decor blog in the fall of 2012, called 'homeward found decor',
and relocated the tutorial over there.

May I just take a moment to thank you all
for your continued kindness, appreciation, and good manners?
So many of you have generously shared the link to my tutorial over the years,
and shared my photos of my pumpkins and your photos of your own pumpkins.

I am so appreciative to those of you who have credited me -

class act, ladies!

(There are the other kind of people, too, but let's just let them stay in their corner...)

Sweet Sweater Pumpkins are my THING!

I created the idea of making them from sweaters in September of 2007
(as opposed to actually, you know, KNITTING them - because Deb don't knit!),
and shared them here on Hummadeedledee,
then made and sold them from 2008 until 2014,
at shows like Glitterfest, Farm Chicks, BarnHouse, Retreat Vintage Market,
and Remnants of the Past vintage & antique shows on the west coast.

I created a cashmere sweater pumpkin especially for Rachel Ashwell
when she visited Remnants of the Past in the fall of 2010...
