BROADCLOTH CHRISTMAS RAG WREATH
Level: Beginner
What you'll need:
- 0.4 m Homespun fabric in 4 colours (or as many colours as you like)
- 2.7 m rolls of Offray Ribbons in 4 designs (or as many designs as you like)
- Metal Wire Wreath 35 cm
- Scissors
- Tape measure
- Quilting Ruler
- Cutting Mat
- Rotary Cutter
Instructions
- Cut each Homespun fabric into 2.5 cm (1") wide by 20 cm (8") long strips. Cut ribbons into 20 cm lengths.
- Sort the strips & ribbons into piles of each colour/design, and lay them in the order that you would like them tied onto the wreath.
- Starting on the inner rail, tie the first strip tightly around the rail with a tight knot. Push to one side with the ends facing upwards.
- Continue to tie the strips/ribbons onto the rail in the same manner in your desired order. Tie as many or little strips/ribbons as you like to the rail to achieve the desired fullness.
- Once happy with the fullness of the inner rail, repeat tying strips/ribbons to the outer rail until the desired fullness is achieved.
Tip: Strips can also be cut with pinking shears, rotary cutter with a decorative blade or simply torn for different looks.
