Holly leaves all around. On this one, after piecing the black center background, I machine stitched on the green bias stem. After adding the borders, I quilted it and then machine appliqued on the green wool felt leaves. Also machine stitched on were the buttons for the holly.
These runners are from a tutorial found on Freemotion by the River blog HERE. But instead of the hearts I used holly leaves, which I appliqued on with green felt after the quilting was done.
These are from my Around and Around We Go pattern found in my Craftsy shop HERE. I am going to list one of these in my Etsy shop soon, which you can find HERE
And Christmas in July continues next week as we begin the 12 Days of Christmas in July Blog Hop hosted by Sarah at Confessions of a Fabric Addict. There are 34 of us participating-that is a lot of Christmas inspiration to check out! My day is Saturday July 15th, so be sure to plan on stopping by. There will be a list with links for all of our blogs published. I will be releasing a new snowman pattern!
Linking with several of the linky parties on my side bar.
