#27 Valentine's Wreath

Finally for something a little bit more girly! Inspired by this tutorial I made a wreath for the reddest holiday of the year. I also just like hearts on things.

Instead of fabric glue, I used hot glue because I'm too impatient for fabric glue to dry, and I don't have enough coordination to do that action quickly either. So hot glue it was.

Here's the progress picture:

I wrapped the wreath in fabric scraps and glued them down as well. Then covered with fabric roses and embroidered felt hearts as I went.

The detail shot! It's got large roses as the base, then smaller roses, then topped with felt hearts that I used a blanket stitch around the edges.

And the whole shebang! I just tied a ribbon around the roses before glueing the heart in place.

I looooooooove it. Really easy tutorial to follow from that blog, just takes a lot of time, and hot glue. :)
