Christmas Tree Block


Using a variation of the Flying Geese block I recently made this Christmas Tree block for the Quilting Bee that I am working with.

I was surprised how well this went together and is in keeping with the rest of the Quilt so far.

My second block is an interlaced star. I decided to make a draft version of this block first. The Father Christmas fabric belongs to the owner of the final quilt and a large piece of this fabric is travelling round with the quilt so that we can all use a little bit in each of our blocks. There will be a common theme running through the final quilt. Lovely idea!

There is now a little gap before I get the next one so I have been crocheting and knitting and I shall hopefully have something worth looking at next week.

Have a good weekend.

Your quilt will be amazing, look forward to seeing it progress. Yes, I am still here, just not as involved as I was before.
Sorry to hear about your issues with someone else helping themselves to your work and posting it as their own. :(

You made a blog with the 'C' word in the title! Oh how could you?! I cannot even let the event enter my consciousness until after No.2's birthday in late October.

Lovely blocks though ;) x
