Tree Skirt

Need a quick, last-minute addition to your Christmas decor?  This tree skirt could be just the thing.


It's made of plain polyester cotton fabric in festive red.  There's no pattern, just a circle on the outside and a circle on the inside.  I folded the fabric in quarters before cutting it.  The slit in the back makes it much easier to get around the base of the tree.

I dressed up the tree skirt with some quick stitching Christmas designs from Embroidery Library.

Some of the colors has to be modified to work on red, so the poinsettias are white instead of red.

 The outer edge is finished with a built-in decorative stitch in the shape of flowers.

Have a wonderful holiday and come back next week for more fun with a sewing machine.
