Trim the Tree Challenge
Well, first off, thank you to all who have been waiting patiently while my bandwidth issues were sorted out. I will try and make sure that doesn’t happen again. Thanks for all of my new visitors for stopping by yesterday and the INCREDIBLY sweet comments you all left me over at the Paper Crafts Connection Blog. It was so nice to see some sweet friends leave comments. Isn’t this a WONDERFUL challenge? I just love making things for the tree, and this is no exception! I have a gift for you today as well! Two templates. One for the ornament itself. A pattern for sewing it. Make two, stamp on both sides and put sidesfacing in and sew, leaving a quarter or more for seam allowance. I used a bit more because muslin can fray a bit.
Here is the Ornament Template: partridge template
And here is a sweet card I made! I made you a template for this as well!!! All designed by me. I hope you enjoy it!
Here is the card template. Just print and cut out around the edges and the inside between the body. partridgecardtemplate
Please go see what the other girls did for this great challenge!

Becky, Thanks for the templates; I just HAD to print them off. Just finished making wooly ornaments this fall, and the muslin sounds like something I must try next.
Like the new banner on your blog as well.

I love what you are making! All the ornaments are great, and I definitely want to make the card so I am very thankful for the template.
I really like the new pic of you, too. How clever. I only wish I’d thought to have a photo of myself like that!
