To create the Christmas trees, in different sizes, simply cut squares that differ in size. The Christmas Tree with two Layers requires the use of two squares measuring 1-1/4 x 1-1/4 and 1-3/4 x 1-3/4. The Christmas Tree with three layers requires the use of an additional square measuring 2-1/4 x 2-1/4 inches. And, likewise, the Christmas Tree with 4 layers requires an additional square measuring 2-3/4 x 2-3/4 inches.  The more squares you create, the larger the tree.
