Christmas Trees

Last week my son said, "I can't wait 'till Halloween is over, then I can get into the Christmas spirit."  So here we go - quilting some Christmas table runners!  The pattern I used is from Anka's Treasures book "Angles With Ease" called Baby Juniper which can be found here.  This is such a great pattern because you can mix and match colors and prints to make some pretty fun trees.

I made 6 different runners and quilted them one after the other.  It's easy to do this on the longarm machine if you can use one long piece of batting and one piece of backing fabric.  I custom quilted them using a combination of stitch in the ditch, swirl designs, and a kind of elongated figure eight in the trees.

I'm working on binding them, and then they'll be for sale in my Etsy shop.  Love these cute little trees!  

I'll be sharing over at Crazy Mom Quilts Finish It Up Friday.  Thanks for stopping by!
