Bringing Home The Christmas Tree X 2

 Here they are.  The pillow covers I made from the Lori Holt pattern.  I love these.  They had a lot of pieces but the instructions were great and they were easy to put together in stages.  The red car is mine and dear daughter picked out the yellow fabric for her car.  I'm going to quilt these then turn them into pillow covers.  

Banner and Christmas Trees

I made a paper patriotic banner for my home.  I bought the blue and red paper which I glued to 110# cardstock.  I used my stencils to make the letter and I had the wooden stars that I painted to put on the ends.  The hardest part of making this banner was trying to figure out what it should say.  I was going to make it longer with Happy 4th of July, but that was way too ambitious.  So I settled for this.

I'm in the process of making Bringing Home The Christmas Tree block from the Lori Holt book, Vintage Christmas.  Here is a picture of the block I'm making I found on the internet. 

I started with the tree.   I'm making the car with the tree on top only.  There are two trees because I'm making one for me and one for dear daughter.

Here are the trees made.
