and time
for new Cackling Stitches
Blocks of the Month,
for our
"Which Way to Witchville"
quilt.

Any tree skirt pattern can be created as a table topper instead, just don’t cut the hole in the center. The BEARY-Y CHRISTMAS TREE SKIRT would also make a super cute table centerpiece.
When I am decorating using a more farmhouse look, I use this tree skirt.
LITTLE RED TRUCK TREE SKIRT is so easy! Consider using fabric photos to paper ...
