    They are just kind of randomly placed on the wall for now...I have no idea what their final purpose will be.

    If you don't like how that one looks (I think it looks fine) but use it as a label on the back.

    Right before we started on these pinwheels I put my blocks together and added the border for the wreath. I put it aside because I can't decide how I am going to cut them out. My twister tool is very thin so I don't think I can rotary cut them and with the dark red and green I couldn't think of what to mark them with to scissor cut them! I'll get back to it one of these days.
    I will be going from bias to bias also!
