While we were visiting a "Christmas Village" here in Michigan, I took this craft along with me for each of our gang to help make our Thanksgiving center piece. I brought rolls of toilet paper, batting, fabric, lunch size paper bags, pipe cleaners, and embroidered pumpkin leaves (leaf design was from Discovery Embroidery Forum. I didn't tell them what they were making - just gave them instructions and my son-in-law was the first to guess what it was. It turned out to be a "Hoot" to make and they were pleased to have a part in our homemade centerpiece. The little hands in the pic belong to my darling 1 year old Granddaughter,Vivian, who was helping out!!!
