Winter Wreath

To round off the year 2023, here’s the Winter Wreath.

It’s part of the famous Crowns of Seasons series on sale on my online site and in my Etsy store. I’ve chosen to publish it virtually, without printed fabric or threads, but complete enough to allow you to make it using this tutorial.

You will find the design of this wreath to download HERE.
