Sewing the pieces together
Step 5: First things first I laid the pieces out in the order I wanted them to be in the wagon wheel. Each wagon wheel needs eight pieces. I could have used only 2 fabrics per wheel and alternated them. I decided that I would use 4 fabrics to get a more varied wheel.
Step 8: Sew the halves into a whole to create the wagon wheel.
Step 9: Place on the background fabric and add a 6'' circle to the center of the wheel.
Step 6: Sew the pieces into pairs along the straight edges.
