Tree skirt

This is my Christmas Project #1. I have around 10 I am wanting to do.... Wish me luck!

I am in LOVE with this skirt. I was going for a vintage elegance and I am so happy how it looks with my tree. It was really easy to make. I got the tutorial HERE, but I ended up needing more fabric than what they called for (I need to buy another yard to finish it today). I also didn't want to spend a lot on it, so I replaced the linen with muslin. I saw a post where the girl did linen and burlap every other row and that was cute. I am sure any color or color pattern would be adorable. *Just looking at it makes me happy.
Now I'm off to start another project!

i hope you are mailing one of those to texas :D i actually saw that on pinterest last night and was contemplating it. I might just have to make one. I don't think I can take another year of my husband making fun of the silly tree skirt we have.

Super cute! I think yours looks better than the one in the pictures on the tutorial. :)
