::the mom:: for october

I wanted to make something using these fabrics. My goal was to find something fitting for October and November.

I cut a 6 1/2 x 8 1/2" rectangle from the orange fabrics. Then I cut some 2 1/2" squares from the white and laid them in the corners and sewed diagonally. I flipped up the lower triangle of the white square on the sewn diagonal and cut off (with a 1/4"seam remaining) the underneath triangle piece. For the lower corners I sewed 1 1/2" squares of white fabric in the same manner. Can you tell what I am making?
I pieced this brown piece between 2 white strips creating a stem and I'm ready to join the two pieces.

Here is my Pumpkin Block. I just have to sew small squares to the bottom corners.
