Down the Lane

Just to let you know that I was so inspired by your thread that I had a go!



It took me longer than I expected, but also I think I made it too big (even though I reduced it during making!)

I am pleased with it though!

Ooh its lovely, what sort of hoop is it?

I really like that Helen, what did you use for the hoop, I use a wire coat hanger.

Ooh that's a good idea, I started getting the material ready and was going to use an embroidery hoop but they are pricey, metal hanger it is thank you

Its lovely Helen and very festive colours Lindaxx

Oooh! It's lovely

Thank you! I followed bunny mummy's advice and just used garden wire. I would it round a bin to get a rough circle, and used a double thickness. My wire was very flimsy so should have used 3 lots really, but it will do for a first attempt!

Coat hanger sounds good, but dont have any!

Helen that is really lovely, I may have a go at making one for my friend for Xmas I may need more instructions though

Beautiful, Helen you are getting so clever.

You are really getting into making pretty things. I love this country look and the colours are quite Christmassy. Just going to sort out garden wire and have a go

I have made 7 of these now - the biggest one (which is in the photo) is on my front door. The others, which are slightly smaller, are nicer I think. They look fuller.

I think that's enough wreath making for this year!

How did I miss this? Beautiful, I love it!

Love it - they are so effective
