Twiddling my thumbs after finishing the sewing so had a go at a rag wreath. Think I will be doing some more but taking a bit more time with them

Hi Carol, I used a wire coat hanger shaped into a circle. As I took off the hanging hook I used insulating tape to hold it together. Got the idea from somewhere on internet but cant remember where.

Oooh nice rag wreath. I've got a copper frame to start a rag wreath, have got a few old tops I am going to use.

I like the idea of recycling a metal coat hanger )t'
