Product Information

Place the lining piece right sides together with the outer piece. Stitch all around the bottom of the skirt, the line of the skirt, and the upper circle leaving and opening in the upper circle for turning. Step 6: Turn Right Sides Out I thought it would be fun to add a white tip to the edge of the scallops to make it look like little snow banks. So, once all the grey scallops were cut, I traced the edge onto some white felt as well.

Step 3: Leave the fabric folded and cut the fold open on just one of the sides. This opening will allow you to place your skirt over the base of the tree.This year, I thought I’d jump on the tree skirt train and start with three easy no-sew options for my first year.

Cut the ribbon into six pieces that measure 10″ long. Stitch the ribbon to both sides of the line that you cut to the right side of the main outer fabric 6″ apart. Add the ribbon Step 5: Add the Lining Measure 20″ to each side of the center and make a mark. Measure 20″ down the center and make a mark. Using a 20″ string attached to a pencil and pin join the three marks together to make a curve. Cut the curve. Take a small plate or pot lid and cut a half circle out of the center. Open the circle and cut a straight line from the bottom curve to the top curve. Repeat the process for the lining fabric. Draw half circle Cut half circle on fold Draw small half circle on the fold Cut small half circle Step 3: Add the Pom Pom Trim If you wish to make your tree skirt smaller or larger, simply omit or add one more ‘round’ of sixteen (16) 2½in strips and cornerstones. Step 2: To make the small middle circle for your tree trunk, fold your fabric circle in half and place a round can or jar halfway across the middle point of your fold. Trace the half circle and cut with fabric scissors.OK, here are the overall directions for your tree skirt. I’ll give you the variation details for each specific one below. Once you've finished decorating your tree with baubles and tree lights, you can place your Christmas tree skirt. First, fan out the skirt so that it covers the tree base. Then wrap the skirt fabric around the tree stand. Depending on the Christmas tree skirt you've got, you should be able to button it up or tie it at one end to keep it in place. For the pom pom skirt, all you have to do is follow the basic directions and then hot glue pom pom trim around the edge of the skirt. I love jumbo pom poms, so I bought the biggest trim I could find at the local craft store. To make a scalloped edge skirt, trace the bottom half of a round item (like a ribbon spool) all the way around the edge of the skirt once you cut your large circle. No matter how many times you fold your fabric, just use a ruler and measure out half your circle diameter (so 20″ for me) from the center of your folded square all the way across your folded fabric.
