When I came across this free pattern at Lark Crafts for a sand bag Christmas tree, I pinned it.
Unlike my other "pins", this one got done! The pattern comes from the book Flip Dolls & Toys That Zip, Stack, Hide, Grab & Go by Laura Wilson.
I may need to buy this book.

I used vintage fabric scraps that I had on hand and filled the pieces with non toxic plastic toy filler (not sure what it's called) because I had a bag of it from a garage sale. Otherwise, I would have used rice.
It's already been received by a special someone....
Who last I heard was playing "fetch" with them with her Daddy.
My daughter did not realize that they were supposed to be a "tree". Hmmm...maybe I should have used all green fabric!!
How are your Christmas preparations going? My youngest informed me that it was 12 days until Christmas this morning. "WHAT?!?! " She laughed at me and went to the calendar to show me. She's right!
