Additional information:
-The pieces of the tree skirt kit are NOT pre-cut
-The kit includes the pattern. If you purchase a kit, you do NOT have to purchase a pattern separately. It is included
-You will need to purchase your own threads and flosses of your choosing. I tell you the colors I use, but please feel free to use
whatever colors appeal to you or you have in your craft stash.
-Pearl cotton is a type of embroidery floss. Instead of 6 individual strands (standard floss), it is twisted together
-Do NOT use an embroidery hoop when stitching this. It will stretch the wool felt too much.
-You will need to have your own sewing machine (if required), scissors, pins and needles
Kit will ship priority mail
International packages will ship first class international
Some other things you should know:
I am a sole proprietor. I design the product you are making. I create the pattern and the instructions. I also assemble the kit you are using here in my studio in Connecticut. Nothing is sourced out
The wool felt that I use for your kit is made in Massachusetts. It is not ordinary craft felt. It is felt that has wool punched into it and the quality is far superior than the felt that is purchased from overseas
The print shop I use to print your pattern is a small, family run business in my small town
I source every item I can from local & USA companies. This aspect of my business is very important to me. I believe in supporting my community and businesses within the United States that strive to make a quality product.
Many thanks for stopping by!
