Christmas tree skirt rambling

Thoughts on the 4 skirts underway here. Has anybody Ever actually washed a
Christmas tree skirt? Naaah. Not going to happen.
Where do you put the label? Doesn't matter. Did anybody ever turn your
Christmas tree skirt over to see the label?
Are people probably going to set gifts on it and nobody sees it anyway?
Setting all that aside, the skirts are nearly finished. All very
special. I see that there's a new line of Dr. Seuss just out and too late
for me but I did have some Grinch fabric and used it for DD's skirt.
If you're toying with the notion of making a skirt for yourself or as a
gift, you'd better get to it soon. They take a little longer than you'd
expect. And. The time for the annual awful Christmas jokes will be here
before you know it. =)
Also. We've been blessed here with lots of babies who will be having
their lst Christmas. Methinks you'll want to make a special ornament for
baby. Polly

Right in the very centre (measured horizontally and vertically!!) would
seem to be the most invisible place for the label (on the inside of
course g)

Oh yes, had a naughty kitten......it had to be washed!!!

Yep, so we could show the children who made it.

True, but it adds to the atmosphere.

Well done,so organised.

Is it really that close......... I've got things to do before it
arrives, so little time, so much to do.

That reminds me -- I have a stocking to make for the newest grandchild

Very funny, Pat. What are we going to do with you? The very center is
where you leave an opening to put the tree. Well. It's where you 'should'
leave an opening. I didn't on the 1st one and realized that I'd need to
plan better for the next one.

Oh I see! Well, I have never seen one up close and personal gg I
thought they were like a cape - so that they had one completely open
end.
Oh dear - I should really get the sort of life that lets me know where a
tree skirt opens. Surely it would have to be a very large hole, to get
over the tree?????

Every year. The cats use it as their personal quilt.

Don't put one on. Mine is completely reversible.

Are people probably going to set gifts on it and nobody sees it anyway?

Yep, after leaving room for cats.

I just turned the last skirt right-side-out and was bragging to Mr. Esther
that I 'remembered' to leave an opening. ( I forgot with not one but two of
them.) Mr. Smarty-Pants asked if I made the opening big enough to pull over
the top of the tree. Polly
