Jack-o-Lantern Patterns list

15 Oct 2005

This list is a few years old and some links might be dead. You might want to look at a more current version by clicking here.

A few years ago I posted a big list of pumpkin carving patterns, but now most of those links are dead. For those few thousand people that wander this way through search engines around Halloween, here’s a list of some decent pattern sites…

The Pumpkin Wizard has hundreds of patterns online, including photo-realistic celebrities, logos, and characters. Wow. No, really — wow.
Jack-O-Lantern.com is mainly original patterns in traditional styles
Fabulous Foods - One of the sites I originally linked to is still online
Swan’s Pumpkin Farm - Another from the original list

Pumpkin Masters - The makers of the books you see in all the srotes this time of year. Like always, they have a few free patterns you can download. The Pirate looks interesting. This year, you have to fill out a marketing survey to access each pattern. Boo!
Spookmaster has free and for purchase patterns online
Halloween Magazine carries a number of Hallowween-related downloads including some software to create your own patterns.
Family Management publishes a few patterns free for the taking plus an ebook that you can get for free if you give them your address.
Me On A Pumpkin is software that will turn most pictures into a carving pattern
Pumpkin Carving 101 is a good place for the novice carver to start. They’ve got some tips that will get you up to speed quickly.
