Tutorial: Use felt appliques to make a fun and easy Christmas skirt

Jamie from Scattered Thoughts of a Crafty Mom shares a tutorial for making this felt appliqued Christmas skirt. The felt Christmas tree appliques are an easy detail to add, and inject some holiday fun into a plain skirt. The pink, red, lime green, and turquoise palette she used is super cute. She added the trees to a skirt she made (she gives a link to a tutorial showing how), but you could also do this with a plain store-bought skirt.
