Leaf garland

I combined this months themes from three craftalongs:
from the stitchalong, “something unexpected” (stitching on paper)
Craft this in your style–the leaves spoke to me, and the pop of blue
and the destash-along for the colors

A cord is stitched up the center of each paper leaf, then they are stitched to a hanging cord.

The journey was fraught.

What a lovely design! All the colors and shapes together are wonderful! The pop of blue with the browns makes it very interesting and fun!

This is so pretty! You stitched it to the hanging cord? How in the world did you do that?

I left extra cord at the top of each leaf, and machine zigzagged all along the hangcord, adding leaves as I went.

Very pretty! That blue is so nice.
