Someone posted a link to a tree skirt like this, and I just had to make it. I used the opposite wedges to make some scrappy stockings. The set will be a gift for DD and her family. They only have one DD now, so they will have stockings for a growing family and/or guests during the holidays.

How gorgeous!!! I love the buttons and loops for closing the tree skirt. And how clever of you to make enough stockings for future Christmases and a growing family.

WOW! What is the finished size of the tree skirt. Went to the link - didn't see it listed there. Thanks.

I love this!! I even have the ruler to make this, but have I?? Of course not. :lol:

Bevanger 01-19-2010 08:33 AM

Oh my. That is beautiful

RedGarnet222 01-19-2010 09:52 AM

I love it! You are very smart to make spare stockings now while you have the coordinating fabric. I don't know that I could make a bargello on the curve.

Honey 01-19-2010 10:30 AM

Very pretty. Beautiful colors! You did a great job!

ladygen 01-19-2010 10:38 AM

BEAUTIFUL!

DJ 01-19-2010 10:56 PM

Wanda posted the pattern on page 1 (thanks, Wanda). I didn't follow it exactly, but pretty close. It wasn't really difficult with the 10 degree ruler. I had already read up on bargello, so had an idea of how it works.

Glad you all like it!

mumtoliam 01-19-2010 11:10 PM

I actually bought the fabric to make this and ahhh - never got it cut.

Yours look fantastic and will motivate me to get mine finished before next Christmas!!!

Cybrarian 11-27-2010 06:19 PM

Dj yours is beautiful too. Smart use of the unused wedges thanks for a great tip.

lizpatterson1 12-03-2010 01:01 AM

That is beautiful.

TN Donna 12-03-2010 02:37 AM

Gorgeous. I like the buttons and loops to keep it from gapping. I want one.

quiltingcousin 12-03-2010 02:57 AM

This is absolutely gorgeous.....Why is it December provides the most motivation? Still with all my projects to finish, this will have to be a 2011 project. I love your button closure, I shall use this idea on the tree skirt on my finishing table. Thanks for sharing your beautiful work.
