X IS FOR … XMAS TREE

Sweet Nothings Crochet free crochet pattern blog, free pattern for X is for Xmas tree motif,
X IS FOR … XMAS TREE

I’ve been working on some motifs that are going to be added onto blankets, in my case.  The blankets are meant for children undergoing chemotherapy and these little motifs will fun up a simple blanket and spread smiles.
The donation goes to Project Chemo Crochet (PCC) – an organization working towards spreading cheer for chemotherapy patients.  Read all about them on their webpage or Facebook page of the same name.

This is the last in this series of motifs headed to PCC.   However, you can be sure that we’re going to meet here again for more fun stuff that we’ll make together to spread a few smiles.

Thank you for joining me.
