Liberty Christmas Wreath

Step 1:  Sew your strips of Liberty fabric together at the short end.  Top Tip – make sure the fabric join is always on the same side.

Step 2:  Fix one end of the long strip of Liberty ribbons to the reverse of the wreath.  Wrap the ribbon around the foam wreath at a diagonal angle.  Keep going until you have covered the whole wreath.  Pin the other end of the ribbon to the reverse of the wreath.

Step 3:  Attach your chosen ribbon for hanging and chosen embellishments to the wreath.  Hang the wreath on your door.
