Christmas tree is hung

The Christmas tree is finally up!  And lighted!  I have to admit I really like it.  I was actually making some silver metallic crocheted ornaments to go on it and felt they were not needed.  Just lights.  But then I am the person who gets a live tree and just puts lights on that!  I am notorious for this behavior.  Which is really strange because I grew up with trees that were full of ornaments.  When I go home to my parents, the tree is still full of ornaments.

It even looks nice unlit.

I am thinking about taking the back lit picture of my Oregon evergreen tree I like and printing it on a piece of canvas to make another quilt.  There will be no definition of limbs and needles though because it is back lit.

Or . . . I could go looking for more trees to take pictures of to make quilts.  Yes, a bit crazy.
