<br>I needed a new throw pillow for my fall home decor. I decided to create a DIY pumpkin applique pillow and sew a throw [Derila Neck Relief Pillow](https://waselplatform.org/blog/index.php?entryid=318678) cover with it. I used linen fabric for the pillow cover and added the pumpkin applique in black and white check. The pretty yellow bench the pillows are sitting on we made a few months ago, and the tutorial is here. This post contains affiliate links.

Making a pumpkin applique uses the same techniques as any, with attention to the particular design being the only [difference](https://www.behance.net/search/projects/?sort=appreciations&time=week&search=difference). I started my applique by drawing the pumpkin on a piece of regular paper, then taped it up on the kitchen window with the Wonder Under over it and traced the pumpkin on the paper side of the Wonder Under.<br>

<br>After I traced the pumpkin and the leaf, I cut it away since it would be out of a different fabric. Since I loved all three of these fabrics, I purchased each yard. Then, I decided to make my first pillow with the smallest plaid, usually checked. Next, the applique (traced pumpkin on Wonder Under) must be ironed to the wrong side of your fabric. Cut it out along the traced lines after the iron on the applique is cool. Then, peel off the paper backing. Now, it is ready to attach to the pillow pieces. The purple marking in the center of the pumpkin marks the center. The pillow pieces have the same center mark, so I lined them up to the center |
