The leaves are turning color here....
but the weather has YET to cooperate!
The leaves say FALL.
The weather says SUMMER.
I decided to listen to the leaves
and do a little Christmas sewing.
(Christmas tree skirt)
There's one thing I know about myself.
I like to TWEAK patterns...
OR better yet...
use NO pattern.
But I was kind of surprised I would do it to a pattern
I DESIGNED!!!
LOL!
Instead of quilting this and adding binding
like the pattern instructs...
I made it PILLOWcase fashion.
Added some swirly lines.....for interest....
and in another TRUE to FORM move....
I used some old curtains for the back!
THRIFTY.
My middle name.
;)
Here it is BEFORE the swirly stitching.
Hmmm.....
I kind of like it this way too!
Too late.
Beautifully done!! I love the swirly stitching :)
