the instructions in the Lone Star Quick
Kit package to make the eight diamond sections. You'll find a tutorial
for using the Quiltsmart Lone Star Kit here

two of the triangles to each diamond as shown.
Make
8
 4. Sew the eight together,
leaving one seam unstitched.
5. Cut a 4” diameter hole
in the center.
6. Quilt
and bind as desired.
Note:
A fast and easy alternative is the “quick turn” method. Cut a piece of background fabric
to match the top. Pin the two pieces
right sides together and stitch ¼” from the raw edges. Leave a gap of about 8” for turning
the piece right side out.
Add
ribbon, cord, or bias tape for ties to secure the skirt around the tree
base.
