It is such a pleasure to share another one of @milaonnipatterns wonderful patterns. This is the Eira Tree Skirt and Cape, a heirloom quality pattern that can be a tree skirt, a cozy cape, or anything you want or imagine it to be!

We absolutely LOVE Christmas time in our home, and so I went all in to create a Christmas tree skirt that we will treasure for years to come. 🎄

My children and I really enjoy the books by author Jan Brett, especially around Christmas time, as her illustrated version of the Night Before Christmas is truly magical. Her beautiful artwork was my inspiration for this Christmas tree skirt. I used red velvet and blue corduroy for the patchwork, and added some decorative trim to highlight the star shape. Sewing one of Mila's patterns is always balm for my soul as I find it to be such a peaceful creative process thanks to her beautiful and detailed instructions. A very enjoyable sew and now we have an heirloom Christmas decoration that I hope will be a part of our family traditions for years to come ❤️
