Eight Curved Basketball Wedges

Eight curved wedge openings radiate from the center of the pumpkin, separated by ribs of shell that mimic the seams of a basketball. The wedges are all cut through, so the pumpkin itself becomes a glowing ball when lit. Keep the seam ribs a consistent width as you saw each wedge, and remove the wedge pieces gently by pushing from inside so the long curved ribs are not stressed.

Eight-Panel Basketball

A big glowing basketball built from one large circle divided by the ball's signature curved seam lines. The eight panel sections are pierced through while the seam lines stay as intact pumpkin ribs, so the whole ball reads instantly once a candle goes in. The medium challenge is keeping those curved ribs even, so cut alternating panels rather than working around the circle in order, which keeps the wall supported as you go.
