Christmas Projects: Tree Pillow

Back in September I stood in the checkout line at Target and my eyes landed on the Better Homes and Gardens Christmas Craft magazine.  I'm not one of those people who thinks you can ever start thinking about Christmas too early, so I snatched it up.  I loved several of the projects inside,  but was immediately taken by an appliquéd tree pillow.  I loved the simplicity of it and the idea of finally trying my hand at appliqué.  Much like my wreath, I was surprised at how pleased I was with my results.  See for yourself...

I think it turned out really cute although somewhat difficult to photograph!  It has found a happy home on the chair in our school/play room.  And I've discovered how easy and fun it is to appliqué!  Next up, a Christmas t-shirt for Haven.  If it turns out, you'll surely be seeing it here!
