i love it the way it is... but the suggestion of gold quilting thread would be nice
|
I think it is Christmassy just like it is. I wouldn't add anything else to it. It would make it too busy. It's very lovely.
|
Do YOU think it looks Christmassy? After all, it's your tree skirt!
If it doesn't now, won't it when it's under a Christmas tree?? I sure think it does - and will... That said - if you haven't bound it yet, maybe look for a fabric that has red and green in it? |
Thanks everyone! I thought of some sort of applique and other embellishments, but considering my skill level and all the other things I have going on right now it would just be a recipe for disaster, or another UFO. I'm glad y'all agree that it's Christmasy enough. Now, I had been thinking of red thread for the quilting. What do you think of that? Think I'll take it to the store and check out gold & green & see which is best. Y'all's opinions on that are appreciated also.

If you are from Scandinavia you are already very Christmasy...that is what their colors/patterns are along with hearts.

All t needs is a tree and presents. Wha-la ,Christmas!
It looks like a nice tree cover, imho. peace |
Try a green quilting thread and use snowflake or Christmas tree motifs for the designs. :)

I made three of these, one I used Winnie the Pooh in Winter and a white fabric that had silver sparkles in it that made it look like tinsel or snow glimmering in sunshine. I used Santa fabric and a Green branch fabric with the other two. You can also think about reversing the white spaces, make those a Christmas fabric and the other a white on white fabric.

holly leaves maybe. but it doesn't have to "look" like Christmas, just be used then.
|
Second post, in the white spaces on mine, I did snowflakes in blue to match the Pooh fabric and on the white spaces of the Santa themed skirt I drew in Old World Santa's, and the Green one different snowmen.
