Christmas Tree Wallhanging
Highlighting Westalee Design Spin-e-Fex #1 (7.5")
"Each year I design a different Christmas Tree using ‘Westalee Design’ templates. This year I wanted to create a new technique that could easily be made into lots of other shapes.
So this year I am working with both ‘TempLeeQuilting’ and all over and edge to edge patterns using templates to create my framework. This whimsical little tree can be made to any size, just quilt more background.
I have designed it as a basis for you to play with as I do all my patterns. I encourage you to decorate your Tree as you wish. I have kept mine simple by adding sparkly crystals, but of course you can bling and decorate yours however you like." Enjoy ~ Janet
Westalee Design Tools Used:
Hi, I'm Janet Collins!
Westalee Design Accredited Teacher, and Owner of 'From the First Stitch to the Last'.
I have always had a passion for all things quilty since I started learning nearly 30 years ago. I grew up with a needle in my hand and was always making something. Having been a Primary School Teacher in another life, I bring those skills to my teaching and designing of Patchwork and Quilting.
I know the difficulties for people who say they cannot quilt. I was one of them. My gentle and humorous manner has helped my students everywhere to gain confidence. I always say that when I look around a classroom and sees the other students helping each other I know I have done my job.
My greatest pleasure is to see people succeed.
I am very proud to also be a fully Accredited Teacher and examiner for the West Australian Quilters Association.
