Pumpkin Pie, Out of Felt This Time

     With the school year being over, I've let my crafty side have free reign, and have been creating all sorts of fun stuff.  So probably for a while I will be showing off my creations here.  Just to warn you. One of my absolute favorite things to make is felt food.  I have justified this near obsession by planning to make the twins a play kitchen (Out of wood; not felt) for Christmas this year, and then have felt food to go along with it.  So since it's for a purpose, and not just because I think felt food is so much fun to make, then it's OK to buy more expensive wool felt to make it with.  At least that's what I tell Dave, who doesn't the get the whole felt food thing. 
     We all love pumpkin pie, so I decided to make three pieces for my three children.  I would have made a whole pie, but I didn't have enough felt.  This comes out to be half a pie.  I have been making my own patterns, which at times has been frustrating, but I am learning a lot about sewing.  I like the way the pie turned out.  It looks almost good enough to eat!
