Christmas will be upon us before you know it, getting an early start is always a good idea. I love batiks and decided to design a small wall hanging. I used steam-a-seam light because I can move the pieces around before permanently ironing them in place. This design also gave me a chance to use a decorative stitch on my machine to finish the edges on the trees. Easy quilting with straight lines following the shape of the trees adds even more texture. I made a couple of kits up and was delighted when they both sold, so I will have a few more ready for the RDS in Dublin next month and may also try it out in traditional fabrics.
