Bettaguy2 New Member United States 44 Posts	Posted 01/20/2013 4:36 pm I wanted to share some carved pumpkins I've done the last 3 years. I thought folks in this forum might enjoy them, too. I found images from the internet and used these as stencils. Hope you enjoy these as much as I enjoyed carving them. Too bad they can't be kept year to year! Report this Post to the Staff

I was going to have trouble with the 3 so I used an easier digit. A 1. Didn't give it a second thought. Don't even think I can play this off as an early pattern!! BTW, these took a few hours to complete. Had to give myself a window of time to do. Thanks everyone for the compliments. Report this Post to the Staff

I had to pick the highlights but the outlines are from coin images. I got experience carving pumpkins from the kids Halloween stencil kits. Report this Post to the Staff

Voshus007 Valued Member United States 442 Posts	Posted 01/20/2013 10:41 pm Those are amazing!! Maybe next year you can try a harder coin design? Possibly a SLQ? Report this Post to the Staff
Bettaguy2 New Member United States 44 Posts	Posted 01/20/2013 11:02 pm Quote: Maybe next year you can try a harder coin design? Possibly a SLQ? I thought about the quarter. Hard for sure. I'll give it thought as to the possibility. I was thinking the Lincoln wheat reverse or a Kennedy obverse. I think the wheat back would be easiest. I'll post next years pumpkin(s). :) Report this Post to the Staff
