Welcome to
the 12 Days of Christmas
Tiny Mystery quilt, Day 6.
I mentioned the very first day
of our 12 Days of Christmas Quilt-Along,
there will be 1 Tiny Dresden plate.
Thanks for reminding me yesterday, Paula.
If you don’t already have my Tiny Dresden Plate Template
this would be a good time to purchase one
from your local quilt shop or my website click here.
They’re $8.00 + shipping.
For a short time I will have a paper download here,
but
like the rest of these instructions,
they won’t last,
so don’t tarry!
Don’t know what tarry means???
verb
- linger
- loiter
- procrastinate
- pause
- delay
- wait
- lag

We’ll make a second (different) tiny tree block today.
A new block, a new green fabric!
Cut:
- 2 cream squares 2″
- 2 cream rectangles 1 3/4″ x 2″
- 1 green rectangle 2″ x 3 1/2″
- 1 black rectangle 1″ x 2″
I used my “Lazy Susan” technique for the flying geese again.
I also sewed the triangle scraps together, since they’re there…
If nothing else it kept me from clipping threads between pieces.
I press the seams toward the trunk.
I think it makes the trunk stand out.
Next, sew the tree to the trunk.
I pressed this seam upward & again,
clipped the few stitches in the seam to make it lie flatter.
Don’t forget to post pics over at my Sewing With Susan Facebook group!

Just Keep Sewing…
