ITH Farmhouse Christmas Tree Skirt

ITH Farmhouse Christmas Tree Skirt

Designs by JuJu Exclusive

Instant heirloom! Create a beautiful Christmas tree skirt with Farmhouse images and timeless song lyrics. Customize with fabrics and threads of your choice.

4 sizes included: 5×7, 150×240 hoop (slightly smaller 6×10), 6×10 and 8×12

Approximate finished sizes:

5×7 – 34.6″ Diameter
150×240 hoop (which is slightly smaller than the universal 6×10) – 41.5″ Diameter
6×10 – 47.7″ Diameter
8×12 – 51.7″ Diameter

Requires 45 hoopings. The embroidery-only blocks are stitched completely in the hoop, and then joined together with your sewing machine. The backing and the binding are added with your sewing machine. The embroidery designs feature a blend of sketch, satin and fill stitch design elements. The light and airy “sketch” fill pattern allows for a quick stitch out. The space between each line of stitching varies such that it is more dense at one side of the shape than the other to create the shading effect.

We do NOT recommend resizing designs with sketch elements in software.

Easy to make and assemble! Complete step-by-step PDF photo tutorial and detailed colorcharts included with your download.

***Please note: The inner blocks of the tree skirt contain snowflakes and swirls stitching…not trees. The inner block fabric in the first sample shown is called Farmhouse Christmas by Rile Blake Designs. The background of the fabric is Christmas trees, but the stitching in the design is snowflakes and swirls as shown in our second sample as well as our “size and stitch count” PDF linked under the photos.
