Halloween Bowl By Kreative Kiwi

[@sideliner23]

Learned something new - In Ireland and Scotland people carved scary faces into turnips and placing them into windows or near doors to frighten away Stingy Jack and other wandering evil spirits. This tradition carried on when they moved to the US.

Jack-o-Lanterns were carved with scary faces to frighten away evil spirits on All Hallows Eve. I love the way you did the fussy cutting. Such cute fabric!

[@UnwindingwithFiberandFabric]

Early Jack O’Lanterns would have held a glowing piece of coal. This design came at the perfect time 💜 Thank you

[@rosannemasters1565]

My son in law is a pumpkin carver, and I love watching him carve with the grand daughters watching and learning.

[@larryamyvaughn6557]

Great video instruction. My favorite part of carving the pumpkin is the pumpkin seeds. I remove all the stringy parts from the seeds but don’t wash the seeds. Give them a good coating of salt and roast in the oven at 300*F for about 10-15 minutes (or until golden brown) stir halfway through. But, watch closely so they won’t burn.

This is such a cute bowl. Can't wait to get the pattern.

Jack o lanterns are so cool looking each one unique in its own way and gives off glow of light ❤

[@KaysCutz]

You are are welcome, I am pleased you found it useful. Happy stitching!

[@GhislaineBedos]

ouah quel beau motif pour halloween et une vidéo super bien faite, je ne peux pas me passer de vos vidéos pour broder.

[@AnastasiaBlue1230]

What a clever project! Since pumpkins aren't native to Ireland, the first jack o'lanterns were actually carved turnips or rutabagas!

[@lindabaker7406]

Thank you for showing how easy it could be..funny how we went from turnips to pumpkins

[@ddj1308]

The lighting of Jack O Lanterns traces back to the Samhain Feast.

[@FrancesWolfe-f6e]

The kids begin to carve crude faces into the pumpkins and made the lanterns look like disembodied heads

[@dianeclayton7267]

The Irish brought the tradition of Jack o Lanterns to America

[@cherylduncan3694]

give your future Jack-o Lantern a bath before carving it. Then etch before carving and carve before scooping it. Scoop it from the back and not from the top. Leave the stem attached. To keep it longer seal it with Vasoline. If it is looking a bit droopy or sad, toss it in an ice water bath for an hour. Jack-o Lanterns do best between 50 & 55 degrees Fahrenheit. I learned a whole bunch of new things today. 🎃

Beautiful

Jack-o'-lanterns started as a prank of carved faces out from crudes but became a seasonal decoration in the 19th century.

[@cindyvanoostende7224]

Thank you Kay , it's beautiful !

[@ireneboyle9175]

The name jack o lantern comes from the night watchman who carried a torch. Thank you for another inspiring video💕

[@joycechase5557]

It was the Irish that brought the tradition of carving Jack-o-lantern to America. But it was not a pumpkin at this. They used turnips, rutabagas, gourds, potatoes, and beets.

[@shannonmargaretbrott7524]

Thank you

[@maryannducharme2672]

Jack-o'-lanterns carved from pumpkins are a yearly Halloween tradition that developed in the United States when Celtic Americans brought their root vegetable carving tradition with them.

[@CathiePolisHanson]

The 2023 Alaska State Fair's Great Pumpkin weigh competition was won with a 2,023.5 pound pumpkin. The tradition of the Jack-O-Lantern started with an Irish myth about a man named Jack. Very interesting and fun!

[@leahgreenwalt1219]

Squirrels love to eat jack-o-lanterns off the porch or anywhere you display them outside😵

[@margaretobrien9038]

In the 19th century the irish brought the tradition of pumkins to America. Believed to scare away evil spirits.

[@PattiHelm-u9h]

There are 45 varieties of pumpkins to carve into Jack o’lanterns!

Jack o lanterns originated in Ireland and were made with turnips

[@jorobertson7178]

The original Jack O'Lantern was, however, not a pumpkin as pumpkins did not grow in Ireland. On All Hallow's Eve, the Irish traditionally hollowed out turnips, rutabagas, gourds, potatoes and beets. They then placed a light in them to ward off evil spirits and keep Stingy Jack away. On All Hallow's Eve, the Irish traditionally hollowed out turnips, rutabagas, gourds, potatoes and beets.

Its name comes from the phenomenon of strange lights flickering over peat bogs, called will-o'-the-wisps.

[@HolyMonkeyMoley]

Irish legend has it that this use of jack-o'-lantern was named after a fellow named Stingy Jack. Stingy Jack thought he had tricked the devil, but the devil had the last laugh, condemning Jack to an eternity of wandering the planet with only an ember of hellfire for light.

[@ak3ee]

A jack-o'-lantern (or jack o'lantern) is a carved lantern, most commonly made from a pumpkin or a root vegetable such as a rutabaga or turnip. Jack-o'-lanterns are associated with the Halloween holiday. Its name comes from the reported phenomenon of strange lights flickering over peat bogs, called will-o'-the-wisps or jack-o'-lanterns. The name is also tied to the Irish legend of Stingy Jack, a drunkard who bargains with Satan and is doomed to roam the Earth with only a hollowed turnip to light his way.

COPIED FROM GOOGLE ...The original Jack O'Lantern was, however, not a pumpkin as pumpkins did not grow in Ireland.

[@CraftyLittleSewnSo]

Copied from Google - The Devil, upset by the trick Jack had played on him and keeping his word not to claim his soul, would not allow Jack into hell. He sent Jack off into the dark night with only a burning coal to light his way. Jack put the coal into a carved-out turnip and has been roaming the Earth with it ever since 🎃
