Solstice trees

I'm celebrating the shortest day of the year by bringing in a bit of greenery.

I made 36 of these chevron triangle trees back in November.

Instead of putting them in one quilt,

I made several items,

including the 12-tree table runner above

and two small candle mats.

I put four of them together for a pillow

now parked in my living room.

I quilted snowflakes in  vertical rows.

The runner has a vertical wobbly quilting line done with a walking foot.

And this tree quilt hanging in my hall of trees

has a back and forth loopy line between the trees.

I'm celebrating the solstice with my quilty friends tonight.

We're having appetizers and Christmas goodies 

and maybe someone will actually get out their stitching.

Happy solstice!
