arrow_circle_down Large Applique Tree
In case you are new to the world of large applique designs, let me fill you in. A large applique design is one which needs 2 or more hoopings, with the joining completed as you stitch, In the hoop. The beauty of my large applique designs is you can quickly create a 3D Animal Design much larger than your hoop, and then add them to quilt blocks, reading pillows or pretty much any item as you like.
I had so many requests to create a Large Tree design to go with our Large Applique Animals. I ‘pondered’ on this for quite a while, working out how to make the Tree as flexible as possible. I hope what I have come up with will work for you.
This is a design to play with, to get the finished Tree style to suit your quilt

SAVE!!Purchase this design in ourForest Friends Animals CollectionI used the 5x7 version of the Tree in my Forest Friends Quilt
I used the 5x7 size of the Green Tree Tops – if you have other hoop sizes, you could do the 5x7 Trunk files, but larger Tree Top sizes to create a ‘bigger’ bushier Tree top
You can add the optional branches as I did |
The Tree Trunk is made as one unit – I’ve made the 3rd piece with an identical join, so you can make a shorter tree by using piece 1,2 and 4, or a taller tree by stitching piece 1,2,then 3 as many times as you like, and lastly piece 4
- The 2 branches are made in 1 hooping
- You make as many Tree Tops as needed to shape the Tree you like.
5X7 Trunk – 4 parts 5x7 Tree Tops |
5X7 Trunk – 3 parts 5x7 Tree Tops |
5X7 Trunk – 4 parts 8x12 Tree Tops |
I used Part 4 (Tree Base) as a stump for the Squirrel to sit on
I used the Tree Top File to make 'background bushes' and Clouds |
