    It was one of those mags I looked at in the grocery store standing in line. I graphed it out at home without the magazine, forgot which one it was.

    O Christmas Tree looks like a fun and easy one to do. This would be a great little quilt for our elderly populations who live in smaller homes or retirement centers. They can still have a tree up! Very nice.
    Lynn--thanks for sharing the "International Quilt Show"! G

    though it has not been cold enough yet to wear one yet.

    THANK YOU Nanci I LOVE it all I am going shopping tomorrow for some
    miniature decorations to "hang" on my tree since this is as close to putting
    up a tree as I will get.
    I love this Christmas tree too.

    I also pieced this pattern; just need to quilt and bind. Love the fabrics you used. Mine is going to be a gift to my boss this year. Ditto on the buttons. Oh, and the pearls would be a great touch too. Hmmm. I'm going to maybe need to do a little embelishing on mine too. Thanks for the ideas!

    I made this tree myself and sent it to my mother in law.
    Have two more cut out, just not sewn yet. One is green
    the other in Pinks, than I also have the fabrics to make
    a red & white, red & gold, green & gold, black & gold,
    blue & silver.

    I need to try and find 3-4 more fabrics that are blue & gold
    so I can make one in those colors also.

    Yeah I know its crazy to be making so many of them, but
    they are super easy and quick to make.

    sure sounds like they'd make nice little gifts. They are really pretty. I think I have that issue. I'll have to go take a look. Thanks for all the inspiration.
