Fall Applique Garland

Fall Applique Garland
"This DIY fabric garland is stitched with appliqué mushrooms and snails, perfect for adding handmade charm to your fall décor. Start with a base of old cotton sheets, add patterned fabric caps and shells, and then use free motion embroidery to outline the details. Once backed with felt, the mushrooms and snails become ornaments ready to string into a whimsical garland. This project is a fun way to practice free motion embroidery, use up scraps, and create something truly unique. The ornaments also make wonderful bookmarks, quirky Christmas tree decorations, or handmade gift toppers."
