A sewing-inspired festive wreath, c. 1952

Isn’t this wreath the cutest! It’s from Needlework Illustrated No.215 (Dec 1952).

It’s suggested as a way of giving the sewer in your life the gift of threads (who doesn’t need more haby supplies) but I think is a great way to make a sewing inspired wreath too!

Thread the reels onto fancy cord, knot between the reels and finish with some holly trim – voila!
