My "Torn Fabric" Rag Wreath is so much fun to make! It's an easy craft that you can "lay down" and "pick up" again without reading a pattern! My wreath is made mainly of lightweight denim and chambray, but any woven fabrics will do. Happy Crafting!
Materials:
18" Wire Wreath Frame
Fabric - about 3 yards, or four - 3/4 yard lengths for the picture shown above
Optional: large crochet hook
Directions:
Cut or tear fabric into strips 9" long and 1-1/2" wide.
Ms. Nancy's Tip: If you make your wreath from more than one color, do bundles to make the wreath more uniform. My bundles have 8 of each color, total 32 strips.
Fold the strip in half.
Place the center of the folded strip over 1 wire of the wire wreath.
Insert the ends of the strip around the wire and through the center of the strip. A large crochet hook can be used, if needed, to pull the ends of the strips through.
Continue tying strips on every wire until the whole wreath is covered.
Ms. Nancy's Tip: I put about 30-32 strips in each section.

Ms. Nancy's Notes
- Wreaths can be made from 1 color or a combination of colors of fabrics.
- Seasonal and/or holiday fabrics can be used, as well as sheets and leftover fabrics.
- A large torn fabric bow can be added.
- Wooden shapes can be hung from a thin rope on the wreath or the door hook.
