Christmas quick gifts

 Merry Christmas everyone!!  

I needed a couple of quick gifts so I whipped up these two Christmas tree decorations for a couple of neighbor ladies. They seemed thrilled. I found the free tutorial for them HERE.  I did add one more flying geese to each tree, which of course meant longer borders. I did a little stitch in the ditch(SID) around the white and across the bottom of each of the geese and down the middle of the red borders. I braided 4ply red yarn for the hanger. Easy peasy and pretty quick.



For the other gift I bought a kitchen towel and made two of these towels to go over the oven or door handle. I found a You Tube video for these, there are lots of them out there. 


I like how these don't require a button and buttonhole. It's hard to see in the photo how it is hung. HERE
is the video I followed.



Wishing you all a very happy Christmas. We will be heading to my brother and SIL soon. I will leave you with this little video I took during the Christmas light parade we attended recently. And a couple of lighted scenes from the neighborhood.



A short video of how one person decorated their ATV for the parade.
