I found this fun background in my stash, and thought it looked a little like swirling snow! I fussy cut a little scrap of some red Jingle that I had leftover from the Christmas Star pillow, and found some green scraps from that same pillow that would make the tree. A tiny yellow print hexie made the star at the top.
I love this old fashion Santa text fabric for the backing, and of course, some more red stripes for the binding are a perfect way to finish it off!
I don't usually decorate for Christmas until after Thanksgiving, but I may have to make an exception to that rule this year!
And today I get the chance to link up to Finish it Up Friday at Crazy Mom Quilts! Happy Friday, everyone!

It's darling! I especially love the backing fabric. What is the finished size? I would definitely put it up before Thanksgiving! ;)
What a cute little quilt! I also think you chose a perfect fabric for the back. Visiting from Crazy Mom Quilts. Mary
This is adorable! Great job fussy cutting. I hope you have it someplace you can enjoy it now.
Super cute! You couldn't have found more perfect fabrics for this sweet design. Love it.
I just had to come look at your hexie tree. I too started one, but mine are sewed together(but not done!). Your's is adorable!
Oh, that is so cute! I love it!
That looks great - love the light at the top of the tree!
Okay this is too cute (just running through my "Besties" feed and missed this one somehow...oh yeah I was a tad busy 24/7 in Florida then) I am saving it to whip up for when Brianne and Brady are here, as I need more Christmas decorations if I'm to meet both daughters' demand to have "Santa barf up Christmas all over your house or I'm not coming" haha. Your background is perfect as is your tree!
I like the tree with the trunk that say "jolly", very cute! Happy Holidays!
Hi Diann! What a cute holiday tree, and it is perfect for now. Everyone seems to really be into all things hexies. I'm going to check out the tutorial link you've shared. ~smile~ Roseanne
Love the quilt and the hexies are so perfect for this project! Love the "joy" block which just adds the perfect touch! That backing fabric is really cool too! Have a great day!
