FROSTY FLAKES
With the impact of new-fallen snow, five appliqué quilt blocks
cascade down a wall hanging, winter banner, or table runner.
Vivid red background fabrics showcase the white snowflakes in
this weekend project. To prevent the red from showing through
the white appliqués, fuse together two white layers before
cutting out the appliqué pieces.

ON THE DOT
Quirky stars top off triangular wood trees to finish a
look that’s a little rustic, a little eclectic, and a lot of fun.
Each clean-lined tree shape establishes a foundation for plenty
of creative expression. Use a sharp pencil instead of an artists
brush handle tip to paint the dot patterns. You’ll get more
precise results and defined dots.
