Of course I have a nearly uncountable number of unfinished projects, BUT....since my friend, Pat, was kind enough last week in Atlanta to give me the tree skirt pattern she designed, I decided to start work on that. I used the fabrics shown here (8 different ones) and cut them into strips. Soon I will sew them into strip sets and then use a 10 degree wedge ruler to cut the strip sets. Once assembled, it will make a very nice tree skirt.
I have a quilted jacket in progress as part of a "brown bag" quilt challenge online and I think that is supposed to be completed for March, so I better dig that out and resume work on it this week, too.
My break from the medical typing job continues for another couple of weeks, so I hope to get more sewing done during the rest of this month.

Wow, this looks like it's going to be a fun project.The fabric works well together.
I need to get motivated to sew. Today I'm just not feeling it.

oh la la, I can't wait to see the tree skirt..I need to work on my brown bag project too...
Pat ~ I always love to see what you are working on. What a great thing... to start a tree skirt now. I can't wait to see your jacket that you are making for the Brown Bag Challenge. I have yet to start mine. Just a note... the contest has been extended to April 1st... no fooling!
Pretty fabrics for a tree skirt. Great to get that done way ahead of time! I plan on doing Christmas sewing all year...hope that works out as planned for me! ;o)
These are really pretty fabrics and will make a lovely tree skirt. I got out a bunch of "fancies" from my crazy quilting stash that are all reds, greens, and Christmasy pieces and am going to start a crazy quilted tree skirt. I figure I might finish it in, oh, a dozen years or so. LOL!
Always looking forward to the start of a new project by others Pat... enjoy! 8-)
