Beaded Christmas Tree Garland and Flying Zebra Quilt Finishes

I’ve moved two more projects from the Unfinished Projects to the Completed Projects list on my 2011 – The Year of Getting Things Done page.

First, is this crocheted beaded Christmas tree garland:

I made two of these garlands a couple of years ago and then one again last year, but that still wasn’t enough garland to go all the way around from the top of the tree down to the bottom. I’m pretty sure with this additional garland we should have enough.

The pattern for the garland can be found in White Christmas in Thread Crochet by Kathryn A. Clark put out by Leisure Arts.

And the second finish is this child-sized Flying Zebra quilt.

It has the same backing as the Flying Zebra baby quilt I made for Bama Bound Quilts.

I tried something different for the quilt label this time.

For the baby quilt, I printed off an iron-on label that I transfered onto white fabric and then hand-sewed in place. But for this one, I decided to embroider the label.

I’m not completely satisfied with the neatness of my printing, but this will probably be how I label future quilts.

With these two finishes checked off the list there are ten more projects on my Unfinished Projects list to get done before the end of 2011. Of course, that’s not counting the secret Christmas projects that still need to be completed.
