Christmas tree skirt
 
1 Attachment(s)
I have been trying my hand at being a seamstress for my GD. This made me so frustrated (will post picture in a few days) that I had to have another project to switch back and forth to..Made this skirt from Angiecub's tutorial. It was much more fun and much easier than the dress I was making! I did have to buy 3 yds for backing, tho. Couldn't figure out how to make 2 yds work. Skirt is 50 in. Thanks for the tute, Angiecub. I bookmarked it quite awhile ago, hoping to make at least one.

​Neat tree skirt! I hate garment sewing and it is usually more expensive than ready made.

Your tree skirt is beautiful. How large is it? Do you have a link to the tutorial?

Thanks

Beautiful tree skirt.

EmbQuilt 10-23-2014 03:56 PM

Love your tree skirt! I did a similar one and enjoyed the process so much that I made smaller versions for end tables for us and for family members too

sandyfullmer 10-23-2014 04:46 PM

Really pretty tree skirt! It is an unusual design and you did a nice job sewing it!

GrammaNan 10-23-2014 08:13 PM

It's stunning, good job.

This is so pretty. You did a great job. Merry Christmas.

ManiacQuilter2 10-24-2014 05:19 AM

WOW, looks like you have curved piecing down pat. It is a skill I need to learn. You made a very stunning Xmas skirt. enjoy !!

IrishgalfromNJ 10-24-2014 05:26 AM

Very pretty tree skirt.

JuneBillie 10-24-2014 05:28 AM

That is the prettiest tree skirt I have ever seen. It just looks so festive and cheerful. Where can I find the tutorial?

Ok, I found where it was.

Homespun 10-24-2014 05:39 AM

Oh, my, that is pretty.

YC Quilter 10-24-2014 01:04 PM

Best yet..no curved piecing. Just strip sets and wedge ruler!

stitchingcrazy 10-24-2014 01:28 PM

Beautifully sewn together and I like your colour combo. Much more fun than making garments.

fred singer 10-24-2014 01:33 PM

wow a very nice tree skirt

joyful1 10-24-2014 06:18 PM

Very, very, pretty! Will be buying ruler tomorrow.

heather1949 10-25-2014 03:26 AM

I love your tree skirt.

Daisy Dew 10-25-2014 03:59 AM

What a happy tree skirt - I might have to put the CD's on and start singing!!! Well done.

fayeberry 10-25-2014 05:10 AM

Very nice!

sewnsewer2 10-25-2014 07:10 AM

Oh I LOVE this! !

MargeD 10-25-2014 12:38 PM

WOW, that's an awesome tree skirt. I agree, sometimes when I'm making dresses for our Fashionista 4 year old DGD, I occasionally have to switch back to quilting something else, like quilts or wall hangings. However, I love it when I make dresses for Zoe, like the 2 I made for her BD in May, she immediately told Mom to put one of them on immediately and has worn it often. That makes it all worthwhile. She is definitely a "Girlie Girl", but that's fine by me.

madamekelly 10-25-2014 02:13 PM

Added to the bucket list. I have that ruler, looking for the next project, found this tutorial. Thank you.

jmoore 10-25-2014 05:35 PM

admire your tree skirt very much... you did a great job and love all the fabric you chose.

Caswews 10-25-2014 06:45 PM

Very pretty !

CookyIN 10-26-2014 03:28 AM

That's gorgeous. I especially like how the central ring is pieced in a single fabric; gives the eye a place to rest and the color just makes the whole skirt sing. Great job!

gramquilter2 10-26-2014 01:24 PM

Beautiful job on your tree skirt. Girlfriend, thanks for providing the patter. This is now on my to-do list.

Ariannaquilts 10-26-2014 03:35 PM

I really like this it's so festive. My guild did a spiral table topper using this same ruler. I would love to make this but at $30 for the ruler I will wait until I figure a way to make it using something else, or one of the girls from my guild lends me their 10 degree (maybe it's the 9) ruler.

Sandrea 10-27-2014 03:28 PM

I am so going to make this. I would like to try putting a strip of gold lame' in there, and then make a 3 or 4 inch gold lame' ruffle all around the edge instead of the binding. I can picture this in my head. I think the gold lame' will set it off.

KARENBOUTQUILTIN 12-17-2014 04:31 PM

Love this; love the work you put into it and the colors is so pretty.

Fotoula 12-17-2014 05:17 PM

Well done !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

daisydebby 12-17-2014 08:45 PM

Your tree skirt is really nice. Thanks for the link to the tutorial. Not that I "need" another tree skirt, but it could be a future project after seeing yours:) Merry Christmas:)
