Growing pumpkins

What do you do when you find 2 meters of pumpkin orange super soft synthetic fur for $2 at Goodwill? 

Well, after petting it, I started making pumpkins! 

I'm making two sizes, in the hopes that one will be in scale with my mini Styrofoam headstones. 

And who helped?  My supervisor Willow was on the job!  NOT!  Here she is in my studio in her favorite pose:

 

I think she was a bit embarrassed that I took her photo... I won't tell her I posted it on Facebook!  : }
