You will need:
Embroidery Ring |
Fabric in your choice of colors that you will tear into strips about 1.5" wide and cut into lengths of 5.5" and one longer piece (any color) about 12" long. It doesn't need to be perfect in size. I used red, checkered red, white and gold fabric.
Fabric Strips |
Step 1: Tie your fabric strips onto your ring. It doesn't matter where you start but try to alternate the colors. Continue to tie around the entire hoop, leaving a small space to tie a loop for hanging.
Tie Strips to Ring |
Step 2: When you're nearly done with filling up your ring with your fabric strips, loop the longer piece of fabric onto you ring. This will be used to hang your wreath. Continue to tie more fabric pieces onto your ring until it is completely covered. (I hid the knotted part of my long hanger piece near the hoop base.)
