How lovely are thy branches! These branches are weighed down with hundreds of lights, ornaments, candy, and gifts!
There is a lot of embroidery on this piece, but they're all very simple stitches! The colored pencil tinting adds just that little bit of extra happiness! The quilt's piecing is super simple. What an exciting way to say Merry Christmas!
