I first started sewing from patterns (which was a break through after always drawing out my own ideas!) when Finnian was a baby. After I made his stocking, I moved on to the Christmas tree skirt, which is a very simple, quilted, off-white circular tree skirt. One of my favorite Christmas traditions as a kid was drawing a little something on our tree skirt every year. So we've continued the tradition! This year, I snapped a few photos before we packed it away for next Christmas. I can only imagine what it will look like in years to come.
Traditions, give us a link to our past, and a remembrance of special moments and times. Some carry forward, and some are started anew. This was one of my favorites, from a time when my children could make their own special mark in time. Im so happy this is one youve chosen to continue.......
