They're up, the trees at church are up and church will be open every weekend up to Christmas. It's been a huge relief to everyone involved, especially with last year's festival being cancelled.
There are restrictions visiting; a one way system, some trees further apart, hand sanitiser and masks. The church looks amazing and seems to have an extra calming, comforting feel about it, I can't wait to visit Saturday and see it fully finished.
If you live near Nuneaton a visit to Ansley Church Christmas Tree Festival 2021 will certainly put you in the festive mood.
The exciting news is the 'Bouquet of Flowers' is in church and is stunning, thank you everyone.
If you don't know about this beautiful Bouquet here are the links to my previous posts that will explain the tree's concept and how it progressed to the beautiful tree in church this year.
Could you help me make a bouquet?
Bouquet of Flowers St Laurence's
I was very surprised to have been allocated such a prominent position in church, a lovely touch with the flowers being stitched by so many people. I printed a little background story to the tree and a list of where the flowers were sent from and attached it to the bucket base. The flower ribbon was made by my Mum.

I'm so glad you could finally put this stunning tree on display. Thank you for letting me know!
There were so many amazing examples of stitchers - all people really, but I notices it most among stitchers - coming together to make these trying times a little easier. I'm extremely happy to by part of such a caring community!
Superbe ! Happy too, to see that wonderful tree and all the lovely flowers you finished in such a pretty way!
The visit of the church must be a great moment! Joyeux Noël ! xxx
Wow! The trees are so beautiful. I wish I lived close enough to visit the Church. Thanks for letting us see the display, Clare.
Oh Clare , the tree looks wonderful, well done to all.
All the displays look wonderful.
Let me know if you ever want help again , it was fun.
Take care and enjoy your week.
It's brilliant that your church's tree festival is taking place this year. Your tree is beautiful.
Ooo, we have been given a good spot! They clearly recognise quality when they see it! The tree looks beautiful. It was definitely the right thing to finish them all yourself as the same style pulls the whole thing together. The other trees look lovely too. I am sure people are going to love being able to see them in person this year.
Clare: How wonderful to see all these beautiful trees.
Merry Christmas

Oh goodness Clare, what an amazing display and how wonderful the trees look, all so beautiful and different. It was a pleasure to help you in such a small way and I´m sure people are going to admire the stitched flowers from so many places. Thank you for sharing these gorgeous photos. Happy Christmas
What a delight it must be to see all of those beautiful trees in person! Well done, Clare, on organizing so many stitchers from around the world to contribute. Merry Christmas to you!
You did a beautiful job finishing the flower ornaments. Have a Merry Christmas!
How very lovely! Thank you for sharing all the trees, especially your gorgeous flower tree! It is so heartwarming to see!
