The Oh Christmas Tree Quilt has been a long time coming. I started designing it in fall of 2024, it actually began at a Quilt'N'Sisters retreat where I adapted my Something Wicked pattern with a star topper and some ornaments. I realized it would make an amazing standalone pattern and when I got home I started altering the tree templates to elongate the tree. I made three versions during testing, including a pink tree with light strings. Nine months later, here it is.

About the Pattern
The pattern comes with 4 files: the main quilt pattern PDF, traditional piecing templates, FPP templates, and light string FPP templates. The finished quilt measures 60" x 72". You can traditionally piece the entire quilt, FPP the entire quilt, or mix and match both methods, the tree angle blocks and star topper have templates for both. There are 5 traditionally pieced ornament options and 6 FPP ornament options. The only exclusively FPP elements are the background stars and light strings. Coloring sheets for both the plain tree and light string versions are included. Skill level is intermediate, and knowledge of HST, snowball, stitch'n'flip, and FPP is needed.
