It is finally here. 

This month came rather quickly… Did I say a month? I meant year!

Nevertheless, this year brought my favorite time. Christmas!

And with it all the awesome activities and sewing projects that are waiting for me to be done.

I have already made some Toilet Paper Roll Snowflakes and Christmas Trees. As well as some Glitter Foam easy ornaments for my tree.

The only thing left to do is to make a Tree Skirt Pattern.

How do you make a Christmas Tree Skirt?

Making a Christmas Tree Skirt is easier than you think. You can even make a custom size tree skirt for every type or size of the tree. The only thing you need is fabric a ruler and a string.

Fold the fabric 4 times and draw a semicircle directly on it with a marking tool.

Then cut it out to end up with a perfect circle. Then, use a jar or bottle to make a smaller circle in the middle.

Finally, finish your tree skirt pattern by adding trimming or by sewing bias tape.

What is the standard size of a Tree Skirt?

The rule of thumb for a tree skirt is that it has to be 2” or 3” longer than the base of your tree. 

Of course, it all depends on the space you have for it and how much do you want it to stand out.

You can personalize any of these patterns to nail the right proportions for your Christmas Tree.

Enlarge, or in most cases reduce the outer length to your convenience.

How do you make a lining for your Tree Skirt?

The best thing to do is finish your upper tree skirt design or patchwork. Then place that over your lining with the right sides facing together and cut the lining layer.

Without moving it sew around the outer edges, through the opening and the inner edge. Remember to leave about 3” to 4” open. Then turn it inside out and close the opened space with an invisible stitch.

The technique used to join the fringes looks just beautiful.
