Trim Your Trees With Tucker Tools

I love Christmas Tree quilts and wall hangings. I’m always looking for ways to make Christmas tree quilts. Two years ago I made “I Believe” for my youngest Granddaughter Sam’s first Christmas.

I Believe

I Believe Christmas tree Quilt was made using the Studio 180 Design V Block tool and of course I had to add machine embroidery.

This year I wanted to try some new techniques. I absolutely love this wall hanging made with the Studio 180 Design Split Rects tool.

Split Rect’s Christmas Tree

This Split Rects Christmas Tree was made with 1 1/2″ x 3″ finished units, but you can change the size of this quilt by using any of the 8 sizes provided in the Split Rects instructions.

I had some lime green dupioni silk and decided to make Kermits Swamp Spruce by using all 10 sizes of my Studio 180 Design Wing Clipper 1 tool.

Kermit’s Christmas Tree

As you know when making flying geese with the Wing Clipper you make 4 at a time. So I only needed to make 3 size groups to get all 10 flying geese for Kermits Christmas Tree. These wall hanging can embellished easily by adding beads or costume jewelry. Don’t we all have Christmas pins collected over the years.

Of course if you need to whip up a gift quickly just make one set of the 5″ x 10″ flying geese and trim them down.
