Spring Wreath with Leopard Bunting

 It's been forever since I designed  a spring wreath.  Early this morning I was suddenly struck with the desire to do so. The only idea floating around my head was to make a burlap  bunting with the word "spring".

So I went in search of my burlap fabric. About a month ago I cleaned my sewing room, hauling the majority of  my fabric to the basement. Now I can't find any of the fabric I know I have.  It's so frustrating!  In this case, though, it turned out to be a positive thing. While searching I spotted some pink birdhouses with a leopard-fabric roof and decided to go with a leopard fabric bunting instead.



There's a little bird down at the bottom.




I love how the wreath turned out. I did not spend a penny to buy anything new. Gotta love that!

    It's always nice to put something together without spending a penny! The penny was spent another time so it doesn't count, right:)

    Love the new wreath. Better yet, that you didn't spend a dime.

    Now about that thing called Spring . . . it's rain/snowing/sleet here and a low of 30 for tonight. I just had to cover my garden! Would you believe yesterday I was sunning on the deck?

    Welcome back to the blogging world, missed ya!
