Tree Skirt Progress

The Christmas Tree Skirt that needs to be finished
by the end of the month is ready to be quilted.

This is a new pattern for me
and it's been fun to make.


The points have been trimmed off so the sides are straight.
The pattern called for white fabric on the border,
but it was just too much white for me.
 

I am using a lot of my Christmas fabric stash for this tree skirt.
Lots of metalic gold here!

 

Waiting to be pin basted.
Hopefully the quilting will be done by Sunday.
 



I also finished another
Sew Together Bag.
This one was used when I taught my friends how to make it.


There might be a few more of these in my future.
 

This one will be given to a friend of mine.


Have a great weekend everyone!

Happy Quilting!

I was about to ask how you were going to finish the points -- cut 'em off! I like that. Very pretty.

The print will be more practical than the white too. It looks beautiful. I'm loving the sew-together bags.

That is a new to me pattern for the tree skirt. Can you share it's name? Yep another great bag!

I like the choice of the print! Great pattern and use of fabrics! LOVE, LOVE the bags. I have done so very little quilting lately, I will get back to it.

Great tree skirt pattern...I think your substitution for the white was a good choice. You're getting to be a master bag maker! (I can hardly wait to see the wedding quilt...how much longer until the wedding? :))
