Default Looking for Pattern for Chevron-type Christmas Tree Skirt

Hi Fellow Board Members: In the early 90s my DIL received a beautiful tree skirt from her sister. It was a quilted tree skirt made in Chevron Style with stripe fabric. I am wondering if anyone knows where to find this pattern or if any of our quilters made this skirt in the 90s. I tried to search for the pattern and for Christmas stripe fabric. Did not find what I was looking for. This skirt is amazingly beautiful and I know that if our Members see it they will want to make it too. (This pattern would be made like a Dresden Plate pattern.)

Thank you Friends for your usual help and am wishing all of you a blessed Christmas season and a happy and healthy new year.

There's one on this blog. If it's similar to what you are looking for maybe you can contact the writer?

​I wonder if it might be one of the patterns from Cheryl Phillips wedge rulers? I think her book Quilts Without Corners had some tree skirts in it.

Doing a search for chevron tree skirt, I came up with lots of images. Here's one from Etsy that looks like a giant Dresden plate. https://www.etsy.com/listing/1653713...w_type=gallery

Then I did a search for Dresden plate tree skirt and got lots of amazing images! Maybe something here will work for you: https://images.search.yahoo.com/sear...t+pattern+free

Wow! Thank you for your kind input. These are not exactly the one but these are all beautiful and worth the time. On the "images" site the crochet tree skirt is most like it. I am going to try and get Cheryl Phillips "Quilt Without Corners" book and check it out. Thanks again. This is wonderful as usual.

Peaceandjoy! I really like this pattern. You make your own stripes. Part of the problem with the pattern that I am thinking of is finding several Christmas stripe patterns. Not easy. I really love this. Thank you so much.
