Twelve Days of Christmas Tree Skirt KIT











This tree skirt will measure 48" in diameter, when finished
I have segmented the appliquéd pieces into easily managed "pie shaped" sections that get sewn to the backing once complete
I used wool felt to make this piece, but you could also use wool

Suitable for sewists with a basic knowledge of hand sewing and embroidery.
NO sewing machine required for this project. This is completely hand stitched

The instructions include many black and white photos, drawn illustrations and step by step instructions for the placement of each appliqued piece on this tree skirt.

The instructions alone are 92 pages long- they contain LOTS of photos!
Full size pattern pieces are also included, including a 30" x 52" sheet for the tree skirt backing and wedge pieces.
