I had no idea a bias tape maker even existed !!! Wow! I just ordered a set and can’t wait for its arrival . I came here to try to figure out how to put my old tree skirt back together after a mishap in the wash and I ended up learning so much more than I anticipated. Great video , great explanations. I will be back !!

When making bias tape do you place on angle or can you just do regular?
Fantastic Christmas Tree skirt! I actually are going to make this project. Thank you for providing the helpful shopping list Shabby Fabrics, it is the ideal perfect and quick project that I need so I can make this pattern for a friends Christmas tree. She won't get it for this Christmas due to our postage changes in Australia I am going to try! But she will get it a little late and even perhaps in the New Year 2024! But mostly she will get this lovely project for her Christmas Tree for future years to come. Wishing you all at Shabby Fabric's a Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year for 2024. Thank you once again. Julie. 💖💖💖💖💖💖🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Glad that you love this project and that we were able to help you! She will love it! Have a wonderful Christmas and Happy New Year! Thank you for your lovely comment! ❤️🎄 - Abby

5 thumbs up!!!!!
😍🤩😍 We’re glad you enjoy it! Thanks so much for watching. -Michelle
I love this video and love Tammy she give vary could instructions, do you use bisa binding or just the regular binding. Thank you for this beautiful chrismast project
We are happy that you love this video! Tammy is great! All the binding for this project is cut "regular". Thank you for your comment! - Abby
Love this! Hoping to finish one for my tree this year. I don't have a 30 degree ruler but do have a 60 degree ruler - can I use that instead?
This is such a great project! Happy that you love it! We used the Creative Grids Half 60 ruler and in the video, Tammy lined up the seam allowance on the points of the squares then flipped the ruler over and did the same thing. So yes, you can use a 60-degree ruler! Make sure to draw the lines with a FriXion pen before cutting anything. Hope this helps! - Abby
I have a 45 degree ruler. Will that work with this pattern instead? I know it will require more cuts to complete the cirle, but it is what I have.
Hi Elizabeth -You will need to cut a 60 degree angle on each wedge. We would recommend cutting a circle out of paper and folding it into sixths. Use that for a template. Hope this helps! -Michelle
Made this and was surprised how easily it went together except for attaching the binding to the out edges. Was hoping that was shown in the video but wasn't.
Update: I can't figure out how to add the photo.
This is a great project and perfect for your tree! feel free to share project photos with us! Thanks for your comment! - Abby
I wish I knew how to not put the hole in the center. I could use for a tablecloth.
You can certainly just sew the wedges together without adding the middle hole. Be sure to grab the Free Download, available here: www.shabbyfabrics.com/free-downloads-and-video/651 -Michelle
How wide is the bias strip?
You can find all of the fabric measurements for this tree skirt on the Free Download, available here: www.shabbyfabrics.com/free-downloads-and-video/651 -Michelle
Do I need to buy the half 60 ruler - I’d rather not have another ruler
This is up to you but it will be a lot easier with this ruler. Happy that you like this project! Thanks for your comment! - Abby
Is there a way to make the 2 1/2 inch strips match up?
Hi Mary - You can use the Quilt Planning Diagram included with the pattern to map out where you'd like your fabrics to lay. Getting all of the strips to match up may be a bit difficult if you're working with a jelly roll, but you could do it if you're using just yardage. Hope this makes sense! www.shabbyfabrics.com/free-downloads-and-video/651 -Michelle
I appreciate the download. I think the 4 inch circle did not show up.
We’re glad you enjoy this beautiful tree skirt 🤩 The download for the circle is directly underneath of the green button, in the phrase “Click Here” www.shabbyfabrics.com/free-downloads-and-video/651 Hope this helps! -Michelle
Beautiful. What are the pins again?
You can shop the Heat Resistant Cool Pins here: www.shabbyfabrics.com/p133497 -Michelle
I am struggling with the strip instructions. 😢 The cutting instructions on pg 2 for the 2 1/2 strips has 9 rectangle cuts, but there are 16 rectangles required for one section of the skirt. This doesn't line up at all with the Step 4 instructions on pg 3.
I received my jelly roll today and was so excited to get started on this project, but now I'm afraid to start cutting because of the poor instructions. I'm not even sure if one 36 strip jelly roll will be enough!
Hi Kelly - You are making 6 wedges, and you are cutting 12 rectangles of each size listed on page 2. You are using 2 rectangles of each size per wedge, so you have plenty of rectangles. If you want more choices of fabric, you can easily use another 6 strips to cut additional rectangles from. We made the sample using one Strip Roll, 1 yard of binding, and 2 yards of backing. Hope this helps :) -Michelle
I just looked at Shabby Fabric's for the pattern? I am in Australia and being a pensioner I cannot afford to ship the fabrics to me. But I am wondering if I can get the listing of the pattern instead? I am willing to even pay for it. Are you willing to help? Or do I have to guess at how much fabric is needed and make my own pattern up. I would like to do the right thing here. Are you willing to help???? Julie 💖💖💖
Hi Julie - We’re so glad you enjoy this beautiful pattern! You can find the Free Download for it here: www.shabbyfabrics.com/free-downloads-and-video/651 Thanks for watching 😍 -Michelle
@@ShabbyFabrics how do you calculate the yardage needed for the strips or how many jelly rolls will it take?
The fabric requirements can be found on the Free Download here: www.shabbyfabrics.com/free-downloads-and-video/651 It looks like you'll need 24 JR strips, 3yds fabric & 2yd fusible fleece. Hope this helps! -Michelle
Is there a video of putting on the binding? I need help.
Here are a couple tutorials that may assist you with the binding on your Christmas Night Tree Skirt! www.shabbyfabrics.com/free-downloads-and-video/598 www.shabbyfabrics.com/free-downloads-and-video/83/how-to-make-magic-binding-a-closer-look
Hope these help! - Abby
@@ShabbyFabrics Thank you very much. Merry Christmas .
I really need tutorial on how to put binding around the star shape and the center circle of the Christmas Night tree skirt. The video for the tree skirt didn't go into that, it just briefly ran through that part. I understand how to bi d a regular square or rectangle, but not this specific project. I will keep searching.
How to get to the free download-can’t find it.
Hi Kathryn - You should be able to find the Free Download for this project here: www.shabbyfabrics.com/free-downloads-and-video/651 -Michelle
What size are the 6 panels.
You can find all of the measurements for this project on the Free Download, available here: www.shabbyfabrics.com/free-downloads-and-video/651 -Michelle
