    Default Eye of the Storm

    My dear sister-in-law wanted a table topper that was reversible and she didn't want the label to show on the back. Soooo...I made label that I attached to the backing and put two small snaps at the top so that when she turns the topper over and snaps the label shut, you can't even see the label. Great fun making this quilt. When I cut the fabric and sewed it back together, it was wonderful seeing how the blocks came out. Here are the pictures.

    Looks great! If I want a label but very subtle, I use the QB tutorial on putting it on the binding. If You put matching thread in your machine, it is almost invisible.
