    LOL gramma8! I'm with you......It takes me most of the day just to bind a quilt (no matter what size), let alone make it from start to finish! And I'm not a 'newbie' to quilting or sewing! Oh well, everyone has their own pace I suppose!
    Blessings,

    That is the beauty of this tree, I had all the fabric except the white background and a dear friend gave me that so it was a no cost quilt. I even had the small ornaments left from another project. I hope you all enjoy making this as much as I did and remember you have the pattern come next holiday season, that'll be the hard part.

    Love it!

    Are the red "balls" tiny ornaments or buttons?

    Thanks for sharing!

    Yes they are ornaments. I just stitch them on. I'm making another tree next year for my grandson and I'm planning on using red buttons on that one and I found a large star button for the top.

    I really like this wall hanging. Plan to make one for my son's apartment this year. Thanks for sharing.

    Hey JCL, Did we get a link for this beautiful Christmas tree? I would very much like to do this pattern for some of our shut-ins from my church. Please help me with getting a pattern. Thanks, Sandi
