Hot off the sewing machine. You are the first to see it. Well, second after hubby. Have to get his 2 cents. Make him feel important. :D

I made this wreath from 6mm braided cream macrame cord and 5″ welded metal rings.

The colorful daisies decorating the wreath are buttons I got from JoAnn’s. Fabric is a purple and white floral fat quarter cut into strips and sewn together.

I attached the buttons and fabric to the wreath using embroidery floss and a big eyed blunt needle. So much easier and faster. I had been using regular thread and needles.

Orange ribbon (3/8″ wide) is tied around the wreath and tied in a bow at the bottom. I used about 1 1/4″ yards.

I think I have enough supplies to make a second one.
