Default My front door wreath

Every year I've hung a wreath on our front door, and the one I used the last couple of years looked, well, not welcoming at all.
So I decided to make a wreath to replace it, but out of fabric. It's about 18" square, has 121 pieces, and was certainly a paper piecing challenge
I enjoyed making it and was glad to see the parts of my brain required to make it, still worked
Maybe it's kind of weird, a cloth wreath on the door, but this is kind of known as the house where the weird dog and flower lady lives, so it's not unexpected!

I think its perfect! It looks beautiful on your front door.

I'm about to try a Judy Niemeyer Quilt. Talk about a paperpiecing challenge. Hope my brain is up to it!.
