"But The Christmas Tree Isn't a Girl"

Is what my son said when I showed him the new tree skirt (after I first tried to tell him I had made a skirt for him to wear)

I have wanted a handmade tree skirt since last year, but wasn't confident with my sewing then, so had planned to put it on my sewing to do list for this year.
Kind of slipped my mind until I pulled out my tacky store bought tree skirt, and discovered ALOT of storage staining.

After quickly drawing a rough template of an 8th of the previous tree skirt, it went straight in the bin.

And here is my beautiful new tree skirt (matches the stockings too :))
