Felt Wreath

July 5, 2011 By Spoonful of Sugar - 18 Comments

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?!

Thank you so much for the wonderful reception to t Thank you so much for the wonderful reception to the Quadra Pouch launch last week — I’m thrilled you’re loving this pattern as much as I do.Today I’m sharing a brand new Tilda version, stitched in the large size and made entirely from blenders. I used four Bellflower prints from the Wallflower range for the exterior, and four Stella prints from the Songbird collection for the lining — eight fabrics in total, making it delightfully scrappy.I love how easily Tilda collections mix and match, and how each corner of the pouch showcases a different print. The clever panel construction gives the pouch a neat flat base without boxed corners, and the result is both practical and beautifully structured.If you’d like to sew your own, the Quadra Pouch pattern is available in both my Pattern Store and Etsy Shop.Comment QUADRA and I’ll send the link straight to you.Pattern Details: Quadra Pouch (3 Sizes) - available in our Pattern Store and Etsy ShopFabric: Bellflower blenders and Stella blenders from Tilda, with thanks to @tilda_australia#tildafabrics #quadrapouch #sewingproject #scrapfriendlysewing #pouchpattern
