I decided to make a themed wreath each month for my back door in the garage. It is how we always enter the house.
Here is my Valentine wreath.

Why are you putting it on the garage? :roll:

Very pretty! What a wonderful idea. Something special to welcome you home.

I love it! Is this twister easy? Special ruler? What will be your theme for March? thanks for sharing.

What a great idea, so pretty! :lol:

Pretty, pretty. I made a St. Patrick's Day one for my sister - maybe I'll make another for myself as I like your idea of entryway art. Did you do any quilting on it? I did SID on runners but didn't dare touch my Christmas wreath since I'm a beginner with FMQ & didn't want to ruin it.

kriscraft99 02-02-2011 10:12 AM

oh.. I love it!!

stichinluvr 02-02-2011 10:20 AM

Oh, I love it!

jdiane318 02-02-2011 10:27 AM

Would you mind sharing your layout of the fabric so that some of us could borrow it and use it to make ourselves one also. I love it. I am a twister fan and this looks way too cool.

susie0808 02-02-2011 10:31 AM

what a great idea!!!

Very cute! You did a great job on the border, really brings it together!

Sooo cute! What a great idea. I just may have to use this one. Would you mind sharing the pattern?

suebee 02-02-2011 10:56 AM

Love this!

bdship 02-02-2011 11:21 AM

Very pretty, I must try a twister !

Sharoni 02-02-2011 11:57 AM

I am not putting it on the garage, I am putting it inside the garage on the door that goes into the house. Safe from weather but a pleasant greeting. Glad you like it.

Sharoni 02-02-2011 12:12 PM

The patter is:
2 reds (A) (B) and 1 white fabric
5 inch squares
9 white squares
8 squares of one red fabric (A)
8 squares of other red fabric (B)

Row 1: 1 White, 1A, 1B, 1A, 1White
Row 2: 1 A, 1B, 1 white, 1B, 1A
Row 3: 1B, 3 White, 1B
Row 4: 1A, 1B, 1White, !B, 1A (same as Row 2)
Row 5: 1 White 1A, 1B, 1A, 1 White (same as row 1)

Sew rows together and add a three inch white border all around.
Use the twister template to cut, then resew cut squares together, one row at a time. Lots of waste. You will end up with six square across and six squares down.
You do have a Twister template don't you?

jdiane318 02-02-2011 12:14 PM

Thanks so much for sharing the layout with us. I sure do appreciate it.

QM 02-02-2011 12:16 PM

Nifty!

Nana2Sew 02-02-2011 12:33 PM

Looks great.......nice work!
I'm still trying to make my wreath into a heart shape.
Has anyone figured it out yet?

TrenaM 02-02-2011 02:55 PM

Thanks so much. I will definitely give it a try.

Qbee 02-02-2011 03:18 PM

That is GREAT!! I had thought about doing them for Easter with little ribbons hanging down and for gifts for new babies too. Like you could put little rattlers on ribbons or something...very versatile pattern :D
