Having the banner pieces already made is a super idea. I tried making a banner once and spent so much time trying to get the angles right, it almost made the project not worth saving. Love this.

Nancy, your home must surely be brimming with beauty.
The rose colour brings a much needed glow at this time of the year and the perfect colour to represent a child’s rosy cheeks whilst out in the cold.
Gorgeous creation.
