This gored patchwork tree skirt measures just under 24-inches and would make a lovely addition to a country or whimsical themed tree.
Forty fabric yo-yo's were joined together to form an attractive and playful border.
You may be the lucky person to win this Christmas tree skirt along with...
these fall and winter fabric flower pins...
a Polka Dotted Christmas Stocking...
and little miss Yo-Yo Annie.
The sky is presently a beautiful shade of blue with barely a cloud in sight. It's revving up to be a dandy of a weekend. I've got quite a few loose ends to tie up around here so I'll see you all on Monday. Please have a safe and enjoyable 4th of July.
Aloha!

I LOVE this idea! I want to use the yo-yo's but figured it would take 1024!!! This way I could have an heirloom tree skirt, that is different, with less work. I could make a table runner out of the yo-yo's I already made... Something to think about over the long weekend... Thanks!
Wow, Lettie, this contest just gets better and better! I just love the tree skirt. So many beautiful fabrics. Nice work!
This contest is amazing -- every day it gets more enticing!
Have a great holiday!
Have a wonderful - and safe - July 4 weekend!
With all the fantastic projects you post, I always wonder what your house looks like - how is it decorated?! Do you have your pretties everywhere? Would you consider doing a post with some At Home with Lettie pics? I'd love to seeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!
Oh I love that tree skirt. What is the size of your yo yos?

When I saw your tree skirt, it just took my breath away. Beautiful!
Arlette,
If I win this giveaway, I will be so happy that you are giving so many wonderful things. If I don't win I will wish you had given less and had more giveaways instead! LOL
I love the tree skirt. What a great idea. Have a great Fourth of July, you crafty little thing.

Lettie, every time I open this blog I gasp! I just can't believe what you come up with.
Looking forward to your award post...I know what you mean about finding it hard to choose more recipients!
Happy Fourth of July! Grill some pineapple for me, okay?
And here was me thinking I was the only silly one doing Christmas things in July...LOL I am taking a class next week on embelishing a Christmas wall panel. I love that tree skirt, very cute, I am also a big fan of yo-yo's.

HI Arlette,
Hope you had a nice 4th. Thanks for the info. I think I'm going to make the tree skirt with snowman fabric, since I have all snowmen on the tree.
