Default Christmas tree in progress

I saw a wallhanging using a similar technique at my lqs. I didn't have my phone with me to take a picture and it was too high up on the wall for me to get up close to exam what they did with theirs. They had 6 different colored trees embellished really cutely. I am wondering if I should have turned under my edges. I am going to add a star on top and I have the same fabric in burgundy that I plan to do another tree in.

There was a pattern next to the wallhanging but duh I didn't focus on it at the time. Has anyone seen this before/done it?


Hmmm not letting me attach the pic. I will try from other computer

Hi,
Your Christmas trees are very cute.
I had a problem but I solved it with a similar type of wall-hangning. My living room is so small that we have to speak softly because we are so close when sitting down.. Well... I exagerate a bit but truly, there is no space for a real Christmas tree so the wall-hangning was fine for me. I used the pattern offered by Eleanor Burns in her videos (the Strip-Tzz block series for November or December). I worked about 3 days on it but it is so beautiful. All that is left to do is the quilting part. I should start that this weekend.
