How To Make A No-Sew Fabric Christmas Tree

Here’s a great way to use up old scraps of fabric!  You can make a no-sew fabric Christmas tree!

This geometric tree is held together with lots of pins inserted into a foam cone.  Your iron will get a work-out and will ensure crisp edges and uniform shapes.

This would make a great gift for a party hostess, a neighbor or your Mom.

This is a very easy project.  After you’ve prepared your fabric, you could do this tree while you’re watching TV.
