Placing a star or angel atop the Christmas tree has been
a favorite holiday tradition that has lasted centuries. What
better way to finish decorating your Christmas tree than
with these immaculate angels and stars! These twinkling
beauties are the perfect finishing touch for this year’s holiday
festivities! Cloak your angels in glittering golds and color you
stars with glistening silvers. These delicate designs are the
perfect chance to use metallic threads, organza, dazzling
lamé and cotton fabric! Stitched in three hoopings, each
tree topper is constructed from three freestanding pieces
that are all attached in the third and final hooping. Each
design utilizes stiffener, or buckram, to give the tree toppers
more rigidity as they stand tall at the apex of your tree.
Follow the step by step guide to see exactly how to stitch
out your angels and stars, then turn them into the perfect
tree toppers!

ALL THAT
GLITTERS
THREADS
We matched several of our
thread colors to our fabrics,
as well as used some
glistening metallic threads.
NOTIONS
To complete your tree toppers,
you’ll need stiffener that will
be used in the third and final
hooping to make the topper
rigid. It will also be used
to construct the cone that
will enable the toppers to
stand in place.
FABRIC
We used a combination
of natural colored cottons,
sheer organza, and silver
and gold lamés.
