Embroidered pieces of fabric make ideal wall hangings. Just add some border fabrics, hanging tabs, batting and a backing. Sound complicated? I'll show you an easy way to do it!

This project was first featured in Vol. 110 of Designs in Machine Embroidery Magazine. I have substituted the embroidery here with Make Believe by Windmill Designs. Of course, you can use any fabric you like and embroider a coordinating design.

Start with a solid background fabric and two fabrics for borders. Embroider a design on the solid fabric and trim it to size. Match your thread colors to the fabrics you choose. Stitch borders as desired. Trim to overall size.

Create tabs for hanging the wall hanging.
