The snowman was supposed to be a door hanging, but I cut it from the fabric it came on, and stitched it my background, then did the applique stitch all around all the pieces.

That wreath took about 70 6 inch squares, folded into triangles twice, then gathered on the bottom. Then I hot glued them to a 12 inch Styrofoam wreath, added the string of gold beads and the cardinal.



Fresh Baileys Irish cream is done.
