    Applique Christmas tree skirt progress

    It over 90 degrees here today and humid...perfect day for some winter stitching! I will add some buttons, etc for embellishment after this is quilted. There will be 6 panels-2 down, 4 to go! My grandson has requested Santa, his sleigh with presents, and reindeer for the next panel.....not having much luck finding an image....any suggestions? Thank you!

    This is a free pattern I found on a Northcott website that I can't find now, but I did do a yahoo image search, and hundreds of ideas come up. I used " reindeer applique designs" in the search box. The first picture was the pattern, and the second is my interpretation of it. I used the " liquid stRch,small paintbrush, and an iron " method to do it.

    If you always do, what you have always done, The results never change. Change is the wings you give yourself.

    If you type into a Google search your subject and then add line drawing, then go to images you will get lots of designs to use for appliqué. So for Santas, just type "Santa line drawing"
    I promise not to buy any more fabric until I see something I really like. Or it's on sale. Or I think it might match something.
