Presenting "The Holly Wreath"

The Holly Wreath pattern is a delightful wall hanging that will decorate anyone's home for Christmas. Although the wreath looks detailed, it is made from only one leaf pattern so cutting and stitching are simplified.

Ruth's easy fusible raw edge applique techniques are included in full detail giving you instructions of how to stitch and where to stitch this design. Her patterns always include quilting instructions too!

Not only does her pattern have close up photos with tips and tricks on how to prevent fraying and shortcuts for cutting leaves, but also includes detailed instructions of how to place the leaves around the wreath to give you the best results. You cannot go wrong with such precision instructions and pictures.

If you prefer not to use free-motion, you can use the same techniques to hand stitch or blanket stitch around the shapes instead. Although instructions are not given for these stitching techniques in the pattern, you can find them in full by registering for the online class which is presented below.
