    was really DH's idea... he cut and sewed, I stuffed, sealed and braided. Teamwork!

    Looks like everything old is new again!
    Although, for me, this is all new ..... great idea and thanks!

    Did you stuff the long tubes? or leave the open sections as they suggested in the pattern?

    Great way to use up leftover poly battings.

    I made one years ago. Never really liked it, probably didn't like the fabric I chose. Your wreaths are nice looking.

    The first one I left the whole tube but was difficult to stuff so I left 3 four inch openings on the others then hand sewed
    them closed . Also with the openings I was able to hand stuff the larger tubes, we got progressively smaller , the
    smallest one was about 6 1/2 inches by the 44 inch WOF, just had to braid it tight but I liked the smaller one the best.
    I learn best by trial and error. ;-)
