Christmas Table Topper

Next month the three (yes that is right three) quilt shops in Marietta are having a yearly small shop hop called Sweet Home Marietta. The focus this time is table settings. Each shop will have a free pattern to give out. Ours is going to be a table topper celebrating holidays. Each employee is making a version of the table topper to display. I selected bright Christmas fabric from Michael Miller.

First I made the center of the top and was quite upset with the way it turned out. Can you see the problem?

If I had wanted to line up those bottom stripe, I couldn’t but by accident, it sure did. I then took it apart and made sure the stripes were not lined up. I think it looks better now. I also got the border put on.

Now it just needs to be quilted and it is done.
