Although we are not done sharing fall crafts, we all know if we want to get things done in time for the holidays, we have to start now (or in July if you’re really together!) So, we would like to share our first item in our Christmas Corner. We mentioned in an earlier post that we planned to take a simple applique design and show how to use it in many different ways. Over the next few weeks we will be sharing many different projects using this basic Christmas Tree design. We will also have a wonderful give-away which we will be sharing soon. You may decide to make one of the projects or many. Either way, I think it will be fun using different materials to craft different projects using the same design.
Today, we are sharing a basic applique block. As always, this was designed to fit a 6″ x 6″ block but can be enlarged or reduced to meet your needs. It can be crafted plain, snow can be added to the branches, or you can even add ornaments with buttons or embroidery stitches. The pattern for our Christmas Tree Applique block can be found HERE or with our FREE Appliques. Watch for our first variation soon. Enjoy!
Note about patterns: We are sharing patterns we have designed and made for our own children, families and friends. Every effort is made to share information in a clear and accurate manner. We offer preemptive apologies for any mistakes that may be made. Please let us know via comments or emails if you stumble upon a mistake or if you encounter directions that leave you scratching your head! We will rectify the situation as soon as humanly possible!

LOL… I’m not suggesting people put away their fall crafting… I’m still working on some… I’m just saying that if you want Christmas crafts to use for the holidays… ya need to get them done in November! Which, I know is going to creep up too fast! Why, oh why, didn’t I start all this in June like I always say I’m going to?!
Cute tree. Really excited to see where you go with all this. Do you do any stain glass? My aunt did. Thought it would be awesome in stained glass.
I’ve never done stained glass but we did cut glass paving stones several years ago. I’ve got a couple of ideas. I’ll keep you posted.
Great for stained glass. Nice for this coming christmas.
