Very nice!! I have considered making a fabric wreath for my front door as well... My new house doesn't have a screen/storm door yet but it will before the end of next year... It's on the short list lol.

That pattern is really sharp. I'm happy you shared the pics with us. It's really nice

I love the wreath. I have only done one paper pieced project but this inspires me to do this one. Very pretty. Would like to know the name of the pattern.

I think it's a wonderful idea. It's a green thing and doesn't invade the earth. Go green, girl.

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!
