Christmas Tree Skirts
 
7 Attachment(s)
Here are a few of the tree skirts I have made. I like to personalize them with photos for my children and their spouses by photo-shopping pictures of the two of them together when they were babies and young children. It's time consuming but the gratification from my kids is so worth it, not to mention I like to try being creative. Hope you enjoy.

Great tree skirts. Really family heirlooms with the pictures. Would you mind sharing the pattern for the dresdan plates?

Sewhappytoquilt 11-25-2011 05:29 AM

Oh, so pretty - but Santa's in trouble...way too pretty to cover up with presents!

With the exception of the first 2, this is the pattern I used on all the skirts. I just changed it up on each one. I purchased mine at Keepsake Quilting, but, I am not seeing it on their website. This site is the same price I paid.

What size are the skirts. I need a large tree skirt for my daughters tree. Only patterns I can find are for smaller ones. Yours are wonderful.
