Here's my new spring wreath! I was totally inspired by Traci @ Branchwayquilts and her wreath on Instagram. Let me show you how I made it: I started out with a 14" wire frame from Dollar Tree that looks like this: When cutting out a quilt, and I have just a bit of fabric leftover, I cut it into 2 1/2" strips that can be used for bindings or jelly roll quilt patterns. For this wreath, I dove into my drawer of strips and took out a bunch that were "jelly bean" colored. Next came a lot of pressing! Press the strip in half, then press the edges to the middle, and press it in half again, with the raw edges inside: My strips were all different lengths. I laid them out, one above the other, on my cutting mat and used my Stripology XL ruler to cut them a bunch at a time into 7" lengths. Here's a tip from Gudrun Erla, the designer of the Stripology XL ruler--the slots end at 20", but the outside edge is at 21", which worked perfect for my cutting, as I cut at 7", 14" and 21": Once I had a good pile of strips, I started tying them on. I worked in sections. Tying them on is as simple as tying the first part of your shoelaces. It helped to alternate which side I started tying from--right over left for one strip, then left over right for the next strip. That way they didn't nest together but fluffed out and made a fuller wreath. Here's my spring wreath by our front door: After I finished that wreath, I had a heart shaped wreath form and decided to keep on making! I used up all the rest of my pink and red strips on this one! A friend asked how I store my wreaths. There was an empty wall in our utility room, above the freezer, with some nails in it when we moved into this house. That's been a great place to store wreaths when they're not in use! Grace and peace!!! ~Nancy Linking up with Tips & Tutorials on the 22nd, DrEAMi, Monday Making, Design Wall Monday, Main Crush Monday, What I Made Monday, Midweek Makers, Wednesday Wait Loss, Needle & Thread Thursday, Put Your Foot Down.

1-1/4 inch wide pre-cut vintage dark tan lightweight cotton fabric. Each 6-3/4 inch roll of fabric contains approximately 120 yards of fabric. These rolls of fabric are part of an inventory of several hundred rolls of solid and printed fabric rolls that were included in the purchase of a rug loom from a rug weaving business that closed in the 1980's. The loom, loom accessories, fabric and reference books had been stored in a private home until two years ago when I purchased the lot and moved it to my home. Since then I have discovered that there is more pre-cut fabric than I can possibly use in my lifetime. So far, I have used these rolls of fabric to weave fabric for casual handbags (photo #2) and rag wreaths (photo #3). Other possible crafting methods include: Amish toothbrush rugs, locker hooking, braided rugs, and crochet (I was told that the smaller width fabric rolls were used to crochet chair pads covers). I plan to use some of the narrower width fabric to weave table runners and placemats. As you can see in photo #1 many of these rolls still have the paper wrap that was part of the original bolt prior to the bolt of fabric being cut into individual small width rolls. To determine how many yards were on each roll I devised the following method. I select one roll out of a group of rolls that are the same color, print, diameter of roll and width of fabric. The next step is to unroll the entire roll measuring each yard as I go. If short or long of a full yard by a few inches, I round up or down as appropriate. I have found that fabric on some rolls is not continuous and there may be one to three cuts or splices. This has not been a problem for me as my rug shuttles hold far less than many of the shorter lengths I have encountered but depending on your project you should be aware of this possibility. It is unlikely that this material was pre-shrunk, so I recommend allowing for 10% shrinkage. Shipping Ships within two business days from date of purchase.

Oval rag rug in blue, turquoise, white and purple measuring 25” by 36”. Made from 100% reclaimed cotton and cotton blend fabric. Rug is machine washable on gentle cycle and should be air dried. Depending on your floor surface you may wish to place a nonslip liner beneath your rug. My rugs are made from reclaimed fabric that is laundered and cut or torn into strips. The edges are left raw for a rustic look. The strips are then sewn together to create a fabric yarn which is crocheted into a rug. I enjoy using and combining colours unusual ways to lend a modern touch to a traditional art.
