I recently moved into a Senior High Rise and space is very limited so the Christmas Tree had to go. This year I also started English Paper Piecing and really like the hexagons, therefore, I started a Christmas Tree. It will be a wall hanging with button holes for the lights to go through and lots of embelishments. The red hexs were fussy cut from a FQ, I am looking for a gold lame for a star at the top.

Hi, you tree is so cute. I have some gold lame I can send you, but it will be a couple days as I am going out of town for the day tomorrow. Let me know if you want it.

Love your tree. Downsizing can be a good thing but it is so hard to part with things sometimes. Love the 'ornaments', too.
I made a twister wreath and put antique pins on it for my tree.

Beautiful Christmas tree. I like it much better than a real one. No icky pine needle mess to clean up after Christmas. :thumbup:

What a perfect tree-I love the tree fabric and the ornaments are great. How easy to put up and take down. :)

that's really beautiful. I don't know that I have any gold, but I do have a lot of snowflake fabrics, and I might have a star one.

Such a great replacement. So inventive and can be enjoyed for years to come.
