Mary Engelbreit Wreath Tree Skirt Felt Applique Needle Point Kit

I'd been looking for a tree skirt for a long time and I missed the days when I'd work with my mom on making felt Christmas ornaments and decorations. This was a perfect find! I love the design and detail of this tree skirt -- it is whimsical and festive. I liked that it came in a kit -- the only thing I needed to purchase was a pair of scissors. There are some negatives, however, as the directions are a bit difficult to follow, though not impossible. I had to measure and cut a slit and hole in the center of the red fabric to form a tree skirt -- it wasn't pre-printed. It was a bit daunting, but forced me to problem solve. I enjoy working on this in my spare time in the evening, while watching television -- it is very relaxing. I love that most of the materials (aside from the needles) were made in the U.S. Yes, you could probably buy a felt appliqued tree skirt ready-made by workers in China, India, or Mexico, but you won't have the intense satisfaction of creating this lovely tree skirt with your own hands...something you can take pride in!

beautifully tree skirt, however, instructions are hard to follow and confusing.. and you have to put such hard work just to get it done nicely, for this price, might as well buy the one that you dont have to put any work in!!
