Daria Knowles Hot Skwash !

After some blogging technical issues I can now show the gorgeous velvet pumpkins no one could see in my last post..........And I do mean gorgeous.....

Pumpkin artist Daria Knowles from Oregon has Hot Skwash and uses stems that growers save for her to make her glorious pumpkins.

Each weighs much the same as a regular pumpkin so as Robes was umpacking the boxes he was getting a little workout at the same time. Don't you just love the curly stems?????


This is the cactus color love it and there is a new Grey this year that is wow. They range in size from 2" to Jumbo.......NO ONE has bought just one........



Daria signs her "skwash" in gold on each stem...... Can't wait til my next shipment..or two or three!!!!!!!! To see more of Daria's artistry go to http://www.hotskwash.com

  12. Omigosh!! Pumpkin LOVE!! A couple of those luscious velvets looks really familiar to me. Fabricut's Radiant Velvet, maybe? Wonderfully creative. Do you have these for sale in your shop?
