I saw this Christmas Tree Skirt on the Fat Quarter Shop website. I thought it looked festive and would make a great gift. I ordered the complete kit and pattern. (Happy Holidays by Atkinson Designs) On the pattern there are three sizes. I need a quick gift for a friend. Since I have red, white and blue fabric--and really like the table runner I made with same fabric. I decided to make the smallest version. 
I wanted to use three colors instead of four. The red was supposed to be two colors. This is the result. I think I will use the blue for the binding. Maybe I should add a red or blue border to it-then the binding. Currently it is 20" X 23". It needs a good pressing yet. It called for using a 60 deg. ruler. I used my Tri Tool Ruler. It was quick and easy to make. Any suggestions??????????? Maybe it is one of those where I need to put it away for a few days- and then look at it later.
Could be the cool-cloudy weather????
Have a great weekend!

I like it just like it is without a border. It looks like it's quick and easy so I just might have to look for that pattern.
I like it. Red binding, I think.
Hey there, it's cute. I also think red binding or even gold binding...Quilt it with some stars and I think you'll end up liking it. Hugs, Linda
I too would use a red binding.
I'm partial to blue so I'd go with a blue binding!
