Here is the fourth and final applique from the December Applique Blocks Collection.  As always, the Gingerbread Tree Applique was designed to fit on a 6″ x 6″ block, but it can be reduced or enlarged to meet your needs. We hope you and your family can find many ways to use this collection, as for me, hopefully this week I will be making ornaments as a gift 🙂
