Like so many of you I have a lot of leftover scraps from sewing! I saw this and just had to start one! The strips used in this one are 5 inches long and 1 inch wide. You can use any measurements you like, just tie once around the wire. I got my wire form from Hobby Lobby $3.99 for 2 and I had a 40% off coupon! This is the picture from the internet. Here is what I have so far! great Winter Project!

Love this idea. It would be great for my MIL to do. She is 88. Loves to craft, but eyesight and some dexterity is going...

I found fat squares at Joanne's Fabrics that are spring colors with little Russian stacking dolls.
My daughter and I fell in love with the colors so I'm going to start getting my pieces ready.
It will be so nice to have a wreath ready for the first of spring. I plan on hanging it on my
front door. I think I may add a ribbon to hang it. Love this idea, Connie! Thanks.
God has a bigger plan for me than I have for myself.

I just love this wreath.
You've motivated me to make one for my craft room.
How did you hang it? Add a ribbon?

Connie, your wreathe is just beautiful! I love what you have done and it will be adorable on the baby's nursery door.
All of the other ideas of combinations sound fun too. Maybe I should get myself motivated to make one as well. One would be pretty on the front door in Spring colors as a change from the usual ones I use.

Connie your wreath is looking good - sort of like a flower opening up.
The fabrics for my wreath are light weight denim with little white flowers; chambray; yellow; white & red plaid. I have 4 colors - yours has 5 - will look for another fabric - maybe a small red print. Five prints would make it go quicker.

Sara that is fabulous!! I will make another stop on Thursday to mine! I am using scraps from making Tilda dolls all last year for this one, for Lily June's door!
I used baby clothes from Goodwill for some of my Tilda Dolls too, Like Baby Jeans to make a Jean Jacket for the Dolls! it was perfect, not to thick to sew! I got a little more done today after Lunch! It is relaxing to me!

Connie, I went to the Salvation Army earlier and bought 2 dress, 1 man's shirt, and 1 tablecloth. I now have my red-white-blue-yellow fabrics for 4th of July wreath. Will get started today by cutting off buttons, washing/drying, ironing, and ripping apart the clothes. Fabric will be ready when I am to cut it up.

LOL! I work on it then take a break and sew on my clothespin bag swap. it will be great for the hot summer too, I have to stay in in the extreme heat! .jpg?v 92944015)
