Imagine piecing together memories in the form of fabric, each strip becoming a story stitched into your holiday season.
A quilted Christmas tree wall hanging lets you play with patterns and shades of green, like branches stacked toward the sky.
Moreover, the star on top completes the picture, a handmade reminder that sometimes the simplest crafts can light up a room with joy.
This little forest of fabric doesn’t just decorate your wall; it tells a story of warmth, thrift, and creativity woven into the holidays.
Materials Needed
- Assorted green fabric strips (2-3” wide, various lengths)
- 1 large piece of white or cream fabric (20”×24” as background)
- Brown fabric scrap (3”×3” for tree trunk)
- Yellow fabric (5”×5” for star)
- Fabric scissors or rotary cutter
- Fabric glue or sewing machine with matching thread
- Iron and ironing board
- Wooden dowel or hanger for display
Step-by-step Guide
Step 1: Cut your fabric strips in different lengths, aiming for shorter pieces at the top and longer ones at the bottom to mimic a tree shape.
Step 2: Arrange the strips on your background fabric, overlapping slightly and tilting them at fun angles to add character.
Step 3: Once you’re happy with the layout, attach the strips using fabric glue or sew them down with straight stitches for durability.
Step 4: Cut out a simple star shape from yellow fabric and a small rectangle from brown fabric for the trunk.
Next, attach both at the top and bottom of your tree.
Step 5: Iron the piece carefully to flatten and secure all seams, then hem the edges of the background fabric for a neat finish.
Step 6: Attach the top edge to a wooden dowel or hanger and display it proudly on your wall.
Tips:
If you want extra sparkle, add small buttons, beads, or sequins as ornaments on your fabric tree. It’s a quick way to make your wall art feel even more festive and magical.
