Christmas Wallhangings
 

I am not a Christmas person but as I am co-ordinator of hanging quilts at our local art and craft gallery, I thought I had better make a couple of smaller quilts to hang during December.

The Advent Calendar was so easy to make from a panel, just folds and stitch down to make the pockets. In each of the pockets I am placing tiny candy canes which will have a 'random act of kindness' written on the back. I will be encouraging people to take a candy cane they would like to do and replace it with one of their own kindness thoughts throughout December.

I have always wanted to make this particular Christmas tree, so dug through my Christmas fabric stash (very limited) and I think it turned out pretty good.

The felt Christmas tree was fun to make. I bought couple of panels to cut up for the Christmas decorations, backed them with felt so they would stick to the tree. A great little tree for the kids to 'decorate' instead of taking the decorations on and off the 'real' Christmas tree.

You have been busy producing some lovely festive items.

very sweet hangings Thanks for sharing them.

Love these, is there a pattern for the second one?

I love the quilt calender. It's sweet and beautiful. Kids always have fun decorating trees, real or fake.

Wonderful hangings! Love the braided tree.

all are nice but love the first tree

Congratulation on getting them done is such a short time.

your artful little hangings are so cute & encouraging acts of kindness is a great idea...

I agree with everyone else. What a wonderful collection of Christmas quilts. You did such a nice job on each one. I love the candy cane one because of the random acts of kindness that is attached to it. The first tree is a pattern I have never seen before, very different and pretty. The last one is perfect for the kids to have something busy to do. How fun each one!
