These fabric in the skirt are old, at least 10 years but still beautiful. I always wash my fabrics to get the chemical out so the fabric doesn't rot and will keep for years. |

Both tree skirts are very pretty, and it was so nice of you to give away the one that was so admired!

Is the 2nd tree skirt pattern from "Christmas Traditions in Stained Glass" by Brenda Henning? Her colors are much more monotone in the picture I saw, but the pattern looks identical.

http://www.ericas.com/quilting/patte...ainedglass.htm Yes that is exactly the book I worked out of but used my own taste for fabric and used the traditional black leading (bias). I think the black makes it a bit more striking. It was a lot of work. Well time lol. |
