Blue Monday Christmas


These are handmade tree skirts that will never be used for that purpose.  A very special family to me were older and did handwork to stay busy.  In this case, it was the husband.  He did excellent work and would sell them before they were finished.  I treasure them and wanted to share with my Blue Monday friends. Many wonderful blues are at http://smilingsally.blogspot.com

They are beautiful! What will you do with them? They would make pretty tablecloths, maybe for a small table.

Oh my goodness they are so beautiful. All that intricate handiwork. Sigh! My auntie Ang had crippling arthritis and she made the most beautiful tree skirts. Mine was damaged but I still have it. Such a beautiful memory. Hugs to you friend.
