Bring a touch of nostalgic holiday charm to your home with a handmade Christmas Tree Quilted Door Banner. This project draws on a classic quilt block first published in the Kansas City Star Newspaper nearly a century ago and reimagines it for modern makers. With its simple piecing and timeless design, you can create a striking door or wall accent that feels both traditional and fresh — the perfect backdrop for the season’s festivities.
The pattern is versatile, offering multiple sizes from a single quilt block to a full door banner or even a large quilt. Choose prints and colors that echo vintage styles — muted greens, warm reds, and subtle florals — to give your banner a cozy, heirloom look. Confident beginners and seasoned quilters alike will enjoy the straightforward construction while practicing precision cutting and piecing for crisp points and clean lines.
A free video tutorial is available below along with the free PDF pattern download. A kit featuring Buon Natale by Fig Tree Quilts to make this holiday door banner is also available here.
Once finished, your quilted door banner becomes a beautiful seasonal welcome for guests or a heartfelt handmade gift. Its classic style pairs effortlessly with rustic or modern holiday décor, and the included free quilt block makes it easy to test fabric combinations or whip up smaller coordinating projects like pillows or tote bags. This project is a simple yet meaningful way to infuse your space with handmade warmth this Christmas.
Indulge in some festive sewing with the Christmas Tree Quilt Block, which measures 20.5″ x 20.5″ unfinished. This sizable quilt block is a fantastic addition to your holiday sewing projects, ideal for swift decor creations or snug Christmas quilts. With Kimberly leading you in our step-by-step video tutorial, this vintage block is bound to become a modern favorite.
