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.
