First, prep the pumpkin before adding the fabric. Begin cutting the stem away from the pumpkin.

Cut out a large square of the velvet stretch fabric to cover the pumpkin. Before cutting, check to make sure you are being generous enough to cover the pumpkin.

Starting with one corner of the fabric and begin stuffing the velvet into the paper mache pumpkin.

Continue this until all the fabric has been stuffed into the center. Your fabric should be tight enough that you are seeing the contour of your pumpkin coming through.
