June Tailor’s Quilt As You Go Tree Skirt

This detailed video by Jen at Shabby Fabrics shows easy it is to make Quilt As You Go Tree Skirt using June Tailor’s Pre-Printed Batting. There are many tips and tricks to learn from this video while using the pattern and batting. There are a lot of materials used by Shabby Fabrics, so I would advise watching the video because it links to all of the supplies. The reason for this is that it will make this DIY quilt so much easier if you use the exact tools. However, you can get the batting kit to make your own beautiful tree skirt. It would be nice to get a tree skirt ready and started before all of the holidays start to hit all at once.
