Pumpkin Hollow Row Along

When the leaves start falling, and the pumpkins are ready for picking, it’s time to sew up something cozy and cute in spiced autumnal hues! Finishing at 50.5″ x 57.5″, the Pumpkin Hollow Quilt has seven rows of traditionally pieced fall motifs. Kimberly is making hers with the Birch & Willow Fat Quarter Bundle by Sherri & Chelsi for Moda Fabrics, casting this little lane of homes in the warmth of fall. All the supplies you need to join in on the row-by-row revelry are listed below and in the Pumpkin Hollow Quilt Pattern.
