My Accuquilt project for this month is a super quick and easy one, and since it is July, it’s Christmas themed!
Christmas Tree Mug Rugs
Last year in July I made these cute Christmas Tree, snowflake and holly mug rugs/coasters using the Holiday Medley die (affiliate link):
You can find the tutorial for these right here!
Christmas Tree Mug Rug
I also used it to make this scrappy Christmas Tree mug rug:
… which, oh my goodness, I never finished! I’d better go dig it up!! (In my defense, we were moving house so it got packed right away)
You can find the tutorial for this (unfinished) mug rug here!
Scrappy Christmas Mystery Quiltalong
And then I used the same Holiday Medley die for the Christmas trees in this QAL last year:
Now this die is clearly meant for applique… but I love using Accuquilt dies for more than what they are designed for, and that is what I did with this month’s project…
Little Fabric Christmas Tree Decorations
The little Christmas trees were a bit fiddly to make (stuffing them took the longest), but other than that they were really quick and easy.
I think they would look cute hung on the Christmas tree or on cupboard door knobs…
And as a decoration on wrapped or unwrapped gifts…
I know if I got a gift with one of them on it, I’d be delighted!

I have to say that this is one of my most used dies… along with one that I will be using for next month’s project, but you’ll have to wait to see that one!
I hope you have a lovely weekend… sew lots!
Very clever way to use those Acuquilt dies! Those little stuffed trees are adorable!
You have some cute ideas here. I like to add tokens to gifts as well and make Christmas cards for church friends that can be turned into a tree decoration. You’ve given me an idea with the tree.
Those Christmas pretties are so sweet, Joy. How sweet they all are. The fabrics are lovely.
Such cute little Christmas tree ornies! I’m sure anyone would be glad to get one of these as a gift. A thought – you said they were fiddly to stuff, so what if you used a layer (maybe 2) of quilt bat scraps in between the fabric? That way they’re stuffed, but with a whole lot less effort.
Your mug rugs are so pretty! And I LOVE those stuffed Christmas trees – thanks for the links.
