Question
Where would I look for material(Aida) to cross stitch a Christmas tree skirt with my own characters? Does it come in sizes such as 50" - 60" round?

Answer
Hi,

I hope I can help you with this question. I know that Aida does come in a 45" and 60" width on bolts. I have searched the internet and not found premade blank tree skirts that are not part of a kit. My suggestion would be to contact your local cross stitch shop or an on-line shop. I can recommend a couple that I use - they should be able to help you.
