| Scrappy Wreath from a tutorial on Happy Quilting |
 |
| I was happy to find a heart shaped wire frame at the dollar store. I folded lengthwise and finger pressed and then started tying on some 1 1/2 x 6 1/2" strips but later changed the way I tied them on. |
 |
| In order to make the wreath fuller, I strung a bit of ribbon and tied as shown and tied on extra strips. |
 |
 |
| It turned out so pretty, but I wasn't liking that there were frayed edges, so started pinking the edges in spots where I saw fraying and on all subsequent strips I added. Just beware to open the pinking shears with two hands, to spare your poor thumb joint! Or if you have a pinked rotary cutter blade, that might work well. |
 |
| Update: Looks cute on the front door! |

OMG!! That is SEW darling!!! Interesting adaptation with the added ribbon for extra fullness. I wonder if our Dollar Store has any of those in stock? I may have to go check so that I can be ready for next year. :o))
