Felt Wreath



The "Christmas in July" issue of Homespun arrived this week and it has loads of lovely Christmas themed projects. Christmas is my favourite time of year and getting started on projects now, will mean you will have more time during the season to spend on baking and other last minute activities.

Included in the issue is my "Circle of the Season" Felt Wreath. It is a pretty wreath made from wool felts and can be easily constructed in a weekend. I used some Bliss fabric (that I also used on Sarah's quilt), to cover the polystyrene foam wreath form and the buttons.

Hi Lisa!

I purchased my copy of Homespun and instantly fell in love with this project... then saw your names as the designer and thought, no wonder I love it! Beautiful sweetheart, and such a lovely fabric range to use for Xmas!

There are some really lovely projects in this month's issue isn't there?!

Hugs sweetie! Vikki xo :-)
