It’s the day after the block directions for the Pumpkin Patch went “live” which means you might already be into your stash getting ready to cut – or perusing your stash in your daydreams while you do other things:)


{get your Pumpkin Patch block directions here}



The wall hanging will require 5 of the pumpkin patch blocks and you might be cutting from several different background fabrics to make them – I did!


Here is how I kept track of what I needed:



I start with a sticky note {top left} that lists all the different number of pieces and sizes of each. Then as I start to get some of each size cut, I make an individual note for each pile.





The individual note marks off on the right side the total number needed.
Then I start cutting and write down how many I cut.









When I cut from another background fabric, I write down the new number of cut pieces.






I’ve used this method in the past when I had a lot of cutting to do and didn’t do it all in one sitting. Keeping track is a lot easier than recounting that cut pile over and over again!





Hope that helps you enjoy the process!
