Roughly cut around the tree shape and apply some ODIF 505 Temporary Adhesive Glue Stick. Note: As seen in the next photo, the glue is blue when applying the adhesive. The color will disappear and it will not discolor the fabric nor leave a residue. Apply Odif 505 to the paper template. 9. Before the glue dries place the tree template on the wrong side of the background fabric. Lay the Christmas tree template on the wrong side of the fabric. 10. Use a pair of scissors suited for both paper and fabric such as the INFINITI Tailor Scissors – 81⁄4″ (21cm) to cut around the tree shape. Christmas tree shapes cut from a paper template 11. Repeat steps 9 and 10, until 4 trees are cut. Christmas trees for the quilt As mentioned at the start, this post was quick and easy! A few seams, a bit of cutting and done for the day.

After moving to Ottawa in 1996, I joined my first guild. I took more courses and began to buy quilting books and lots of fabrics. Quilting has become my passion. I have made over 150 more quilts since then, and have never looked back. I now share my knowledge of quilting by teaching and doing presentations, and blogging! previous post Selvage Mini Wall Quilt | Ideas for leftover selvages next post When quilting, Odif 606 is a great alternative to traditional interfacings YOU MAY ALSO LIKE... 6 easy steps to assemble a quilt using... 5 simple sewing notions make fun blocks for...
