Pumpkin Appliqué Beret

'Tis the season for pumpkin spice and all things nice! This pumpkin appliqué beret will see you through the autumn season in style.

Chain stitch, French knot and backstitch embroidery add detail and texture to the design - instructions are included in the attached booklet. Alternatively, machine stitch the leaf veins and pumpkin segments, use thin strips of felt or cord for the looping vines, and sew on beads for the berries.

For the first time, I've included an SVG file version of the template, so it should (hopefully!) be compatible with Cricut cutting machines. Get the template and instructions on my Patreon page.

I think I’ve described every one of the patterns I’ve released through my Patreon as my favourite, but there are definitely some I come back to time and again. The #daytripperdress is one - it was among the first patterns I released, and
Another throwback to Madagascar last year and my fishy beach cape. I’ve long been obsessed with the concept of beach capes, which were popular in the 1930s-50s, often made in chenille or terrycloth fabrics. I’ve used this one on beach hol
Throwback to our Madagascar trip last year, and this tropical dream of a pattern, the #waterfalldress from #charmpatterns. Inspired by an original “Polynesian pattern” edition, it works great in a floaty viscose challis like this for the
Another of my favourite patterns is the #mimosadress, which I released last year. I’ve made five versions of it now. I like that the relatively simple silhouette lets a bold print like this shine. It’s also another one that comes together
More views of the #catskillshalterneck bodice (paired with the #sightseeingskirt). It was fun playing with geometry with this stripe fabric! For this version I cut the bodice front on a bias, aligning the grain with the neckline to create the V effec
