Mini Christmas Appliqués

I have been making these cute little Christmas appliqués  - so much fun! 

Christmas Appliqués

These only require a little yarn in Christmas colours, and can be used to decorate all sorts of projects. 

I might well use some of these to make Christmas Cards for a couple of knitting friends.

Adding a few tiny beads or sequins might look good too !
