12 Days of Christmas Banner

A partridge in a pear tree takes center stage on this quilted banner. With each pear ornament bearing an embroidered phrase from the much-loved carol, you’ll be singing along every time you pass by.

Assemble the Pears

1. With the embroidered side facing up, center one pear front on a red, green, or tan print M piece; fuse in place. Repeat to make 12 fused pear fronts.

2. Using one strand of brown floss, straight-stitch around the edges of each embroidered pear.

3. Using a glue stick, center and glue the wrong side of the fused embroidered pear front to a cardboard N piece. Carefully fold the seam allowances over the edges and to the back of the cardboard; glue in place. Repeat for all pear fronts.

4. For the pear backs, center and glue a plain pear back to a cardboard N piece. Carefully fold the seam allowances over the edges and to the back of the cardboard; glue in place. Repeat for all pear backs.

5. Place a matching pear front and a pear back together with the cardboard sides facing. Whipstitch the pieces together using matching thread.

6. Use three strands of red floss to make the hangers.
