The holly and the ivy. I was given a bag of scrap felt so I had to play! It took me longer to cut out the leaves than it did for them to stitch! The berries are gathered circles of felt with a bead inside.

Love this Sue especially the cute bird perched on it. This brings back memories of my younger crafting days when all I had was a sewing machine and a little ingenuity. All Christmas decorations were made from felt, fabric.egg cartons,twigs, leaves etc and a little glue,paint and of course glitter. I remember making a wreath similar to this using a coat hanger bent into a circle. In retrospect yours is much prettier but 60 odd yrs ago and little money you did what you could./Lillian

Thanks for sharing, Lillian. I've been there as well. I'm not 100% sure about the robin.
you could always add a wing & make the robin 3D? just a thought...........
Been there too! Thank goodness for glitter!

You must be a believer in making lemonade out of lemons! It looks like a time consuming project, but it is interesting and creative. Perfect for your door too.

It looks very pretty. Nice variety of leaves and a lovely bird bird - and this one will not interfere with your berries :) Working with felt must have been a lot faster than the FSL ones you once made.
