Holiday Doorhanger by Andrea Budjack

Therm O Web Supplies:

HeatnBond Fusible Firm Interfacing

Time to deck the house with color and texture for the holidays and Therm O Web products can help you accomplish that.  Today I created a door hang using a two pieces of wool blend felt, Heat N Bond fusible firm interfacing, circle die and sewing machine.

To create this, begin with cutting your door hang pieces of felt (front and back) to the desired size.  Cut two pieces of interfacing to back each piece and iron on to each side.  Cut circle in top of each piece, making sure that they line up with layered back to back.

Add Spray N Bond fusible adhesive to back side of one piece (interfacing side) and layer back sides together then iron.  You should end up with felt on each side.  Now it is time to stitch and embellish.

To create the poinsettia, hand cut with scissors petals to size.  Here I cut four larger and three smaller petals.

Stitch them onto the door hang one at a time.  Once they are all attached, trim the petals to match the edge of the door hang.  Add a button for the center.  Stamp onto a piece of canvas and stitch onto the piece.
