    The quilt guild I am in had a class in making the wreaths, I didn't get to go. I like the purple one the best.

    Sorry, no pix yet. (My cell is on the fritz and my new one is due the 7th or 8th.) I'm so glad you inspired me to keep trying! Thanks. I'm doing a happy dance!
    OK, finally I was able to get a pix. Here is what I ended up with. They still need the bead trims. I used 12 squares with quilt batting and used the Dresden Ruler to mark the angles.
