Autumn Wreath

I wanted to make a new wreath for Autumn.  My inspiration came from these two ideas.

I had some brown burlap and a large embroidery hoop that I rarely use.  I also really liked the felt flowers from Nest of Posies.  So I melded the two ideas and came up with this.

I didn't glue the burlap into the hoop or anything, so I can easily take it out and use the hoop after I'm done with it.

I cut the word Autumn out on freezer paper using my Silhouette.  And I painted on my own stencil.  For more info on how to do freezer paper stencils visit this link for a tutorial.  There are dozens of tutorials for freezer paper stencils if you need help.

Soon I will post up my tutorial of how to make all these fun felt flowers.
