Christmas in May?

What else do we call it when someone doesn't finish the Christmas tree skirt they started working on before Christmas (perhaps even before Thanksgiving)? I finally pulled this project off the pile that was sitting on my desk to be completed.

I am certainly not the best quilter, but I do enjoy the challenge every so often. My corners are not perfectly matched, and all I ever really do for quilting is stitch in the ditch that doesn't always end up staying in the ditch......

My imperfectly matched corners and sloppy in the ditch quilting

Back I'm not sure exactly when, I found this free pattern on Craftsy for a small square quilt. It was similar to a pattern I had seen for a Christmas tree skirt, so I decided I would modify the quilt to make a tree skirt. I think I can qualify this as a stash busting project. I did buy the red poinsettia fabric specifically for this project, but all the rest of the things I needed were in my stash. The white was left over muslin I believe from a different tree skirt I made. The gold fabric I have had many yards of for several years and had never done any major projects with. The batting I pieced together from the many scraps I had. While I did have to buy something to complete the project, my stash ended up smaller than I started with.
