I thing your wreaths are lovely! And would love to know how to make them. I think it looks like you wrapped a wreath with fabric and made petal shapes and attached them overlapping them, is this correct? Thank you for showing them!

The petals are made of squares each one 20 cm folded once in a triangel and then once again. Sew the open side with bastingstiches and pull together stitch to hold it together. Put some batting inside the petal. And pin them on the wreath. There is of total of 9 petals in three different fabrics

I have this pattern from a very very old McCalls magazine, maybe 30 years and my wreath is still looking good. You start with a styrafoam wreath and wrap it with a 3 inch wide strip of fabric so that the foam is totally covered. It helps the wreath last longer. You don't have to stuff the leaves, depending on how many you use. Use T-pins to anchor the leaves to the foam wreath. If you make it using all green leaves, you can attach red holly balls in groups of 3 to it...the fuzzy ones that come on a frings, just cut them off. To store it, hang it on a coat hanger in a closet and put a plastic garbage bag over it.
