Fall fabric panels

I love decorating for the Halloween and the fall. One of the fun things that I have made in the past that are super easy are these fabric panels that I usually get at Hobby Lobby I believe from Daisy Kingdom. I love how they come with instructions.

Here is how easy it is! First iron the fabric. Next cut out the main panel. Fuse the additions to fusible fleece. Cut out a piece of batting and fabric to back the panel. Sew together, turn inside out and close the seam. Cut out the decorations with a good pair of scissors and glue on the panel. I usually take my leftover fabric to make a sleeve for the back part of panel to hang up on a dowel. (I refuse to use a coat hanger and hot glue- I just think it looks tacky and I want the back to look good too. :)

Here are my Fall/Halloween ones...





So far they both survived 1 year since I made them last year. :) I made some other ones for Christmas last year too. I have 2 new Winter Holiday ones I am going to do also so stay tuned for a tutorial. :)

XOXOXOXO,
Lauren
