نمط لحاف سانتا في الأشجار من سينثيا موير

The raw-edge appliqué for Santa’s beard was surprisingly easy to master, and the finished piece looks so whimsical on my wall.

I’m not usually a fan of paper piecing, but the way this pattern walks you through the raw-edge appliqué makes everything click. The finished block really captures that cozy Santa vibe, and the full-size templates saved me a ton of tracing time.

The raw-edge appliqué instructions are so clear that even my first attempt at Santa’s beard came out looking tidy, and the traditional piecing sections flew together in an afternoon. I’m already picturing this as the centerpiece for our holiday guest bedroom.
