What was holding me up was that I had used my mom's scraps to make it and didn't have any of the same fabrics left to do the backing or binding. I took it to the quilt guild meeting and a lady told me to do another theme for the backing. Genius! I loved the idea and went home and made a Christmas tree for the back out of more scraps. Then I used a good green to bind it since it matches both sides. 
For both sides, I used a fusible web to piece the squares. When ironed on they stay in place and perfect corners can be achieved. Essentially both sides have 6 squares across and down even though some squares are made up of triangles and rectangles. I quilted both before I put them together so that both the pumpkin and the tree would pop. I might add some buttons or something as embellishment for the tree to look like ornaments hanging. We'll see.
This is my next declared UFO. I made some of these last year for Christmas gifts but did not make one for myself. They are so easy. I am going to make several again.
