the skirt is made from a 'tree skirt'....
This is the Kitschy book that I spotted it in...

Years ago my Mother made a Tree skirt out of deep red velvet and trimmed it in gold. My grand-daughter was 1st grade I think and she loved that skirt so great-gramma gave it to her and she wore it to school. MB

My aunt's poodle skirt served as my grandmother's tree skirt for years! always one of my favorites and i wanted it as a skirt but she had a tiny waist!

What a cool idea!

I have a small tree skirt that my grandaughter (8 yrs old) loves!
I am going to make her a skirt out of it. She will love it!


Thanks for sharing this nifty idea.

Tree skirts aren't the same as they used to be. You almost have to make a tree skirt and then make the tree skirt into a skirt, in order to not look like the 'made in china' tree skirts in the stores these days. The one in that book is really cute!

I wore circle skirts as a teenager . . . not much different than a tree skirt!

That would make a nice tree skirt. Nice.

You sure are getting some mileage from that book. What a great thing to find.

I get up every morning determined to both change the world and have one hell of a good time. Sometimes this makes planning my day difficult.
