Oh, Christmas Tree

Dear Readers,

I made another Christmas Tree wall hanging for my son so he would have a super easy time decorating for Christmas.  This makes a quilt about 27 x 77 inches.


The pattern is called "Tall Trim the Tree" by Cindi Edgerton.  Unfortunately Cindi has closed her store and the pattern is no longer available.  I hate that as I was going to make one for myself and not knowing it was discontinued I did not make a copy, as I was just going to order a new copy.  The pattern comes with paper pieces to make two tree quilts but I had used the other one to make one for Celeste a couple of years ago.  I did add corners to the top and bottom of the quilt and used the cafe door curtain rods to hang it.  Celeste wanted hers to have all the same snowflake buttons for decorations, but when I went to the store to get buttons, there were not enough large quantities of any one style to decorate the tree consistently.  I went I bought lots of cute little buttons, aliens, stars, some snowflakes, gold balls, red buttons, charms.  So he can roll it out and hang it like it is or hang ornaments on the buttons if he so desires. 

I stuck a piece of paper in the corners so you could see them easier.  




I also made a bag to store it in so it would be easy to store.


Since I did not think of the bag for Celeste's Tree I made her one too!

Merry Christmas!
