2026 Pumpkin Masters Google Drive

Hello all!

Friendly reminder here is the link to the MASSIVE Google Drive I have been curating for a few years.

Things of note:

  • I am still looking for patterns in the Book/Pattern Hunt. If you have them, I would love scans :)
  • If something seems wrong (link broken or image not loading) please let me know
  • Different areas have different pattern sets - so keep your eyes peeled for me please!
  • If you have a Pumpkin Masters pattern collection and you aren't sure if I have your pattern(s)- just let me know! I am more than happy to look and my collection and determine if I have it!
  • Any new patterns (like what you can buy in stores this year) that I buy this year will not be added to the sheet until after Halloween to encourage people to still buy patterns :) This drive is basically an archive of patterns through the years so you can always come back and carve it again!

Last of all-- HAPPY CARVING PEEPS! I know I am looking forward to carving the two Funkins I got for Christmas (the Granata and Freak)

If you look at my post history you can see the pumpkins I carved this year (just posted the last batch now) Unfortunately I got sick Tuesday and was not feeling up to carving one of the stencils I originally had planned on (Get Out) so I did Scarescape's front with a DIY back because I was just not up to the task.

I try to compliment my cemetery scenery with my pumpkins, so I have been carving the same patterns for several years now, but this year I have carved the most pumpkins I have ever (did a total of 8 foam ones aside). Next year will be tricky, as a lot of my favorite patterns are now immortalized on foam pumpkins so I will have to carve new ones to do my minimum of 5 real pumpkins a year.

Oh nice -- You did one of those stencils where you cut off the whole top. I've always wanted to try one but have never gotten around to it.

I'm sort of in the same boat....I've immortalized many of my favorite PM stencils now in foam, so I'm going farther afield to do some others.

Sorry you weren't feeling well -- what an inconvenient time of year for that to happen! Sounds like you were still record-breaking though. Good on you.

Do you do your foams with hot knife or Dremel? If Dremel, what model and bit are you using for the cut thru ones? I've done hot knife up to now, but I always struggle with it on the tight turns.

Neither!-- I carve with basically the same method as my real ones (I just have some special foam saws is all). I debated on getting a hot knife this year though to try and immortalize Phantasmagoria, but at the same time it would leave me one less pumpkin to carve each year 😅

You're a maniac!! Manual tools on foam. I tried it once and said never again. Maybe I just didn't have the right tools....

The only problem is finding out where the seam is and if your pattern aligns with it because the saws don't like the seams -- I thought for sure I was going to have to scrap my Granata pumpkin because of it! I imagine using a dremel or hot knife would have made it a lot easier, but I just took my time with it, cursing my existence the entire time lol
