Of course I have a lot of Christmas themed remnant fabric so I needed an easy project to make with it.  I decided that a three dimensional stuffed Christmas tree would fit the bill.  This is a project that I saw on Pinterest and decided to share it with you.  It is a beginning sewing project that anyone can create in a very short amount of time.  When you are finished this tree will be perfect for Christmas decorating.

Lay the two trees on top of each other in a stack matching the branches. Sew a line down the center of the two trees.  You should now have one tree made up of four cells.
