Poor Little Tree for Session 3

Tomorrow is the Christmas Quilt-a-long.  I'm ready.  I'm armed with freezer pizza - thank heavens they don't take like cardboard (unlike a decade ago!)   I am armed with knitting and I have my Christmas Wall hanging.
Remember me?
I laid out the wall hanging earlier and I noticed the Christmas tree has a distinctive pull to the top left of the tree.  Now tell me aren't natural Christmas trees always a little less than perfect?  That's what I'm telling myself.  I'm going to add gold seed beads to the background to make it sparkle, but I'm not certain why anyone would want a sad little leaning tree wall hanging as a present.  So what could I do with it instead?  Maybe a tote?  I'm not certain I'll have to go through my fabrics and see.

I also have some nebulous ideas for ornaments if I have the time.

Well, I think you're being too hard on yourself. It's gorgeous.

I think it's cute. I don't see any leaning at all! I love the idea of gold seed beads!
