The one I made I just took a square of burgandy velvet and a matching size square of shimmery Christmas plaid and cut the two of them into a circle, cut one side half way to the middle and cut a small circle in the center for the tree trunk, added gold trim around the outer edge of the circle (stitched into the seam so it would show whichever side was up) and that's it. I did not quilt mine, as I made it before I started quilting. Took maybe an hour or so.
