Seems like I am always making items for others. Today I decided to make myself a Fall Table topper. I had gone to a Quilt show and found these beautiful fall fabs. Used the Tube block and then with the scraps ( I can never give them up) to make Crazy Quilt blocks.
Then machine appliqued the leaves.. On the other side made a Thanksgiving topper.. Now we will see how long it stays in my house. lol

I am so glad you made this for yourself. As for it walking out of the house, you could put a note on it "WARNING - this quilt self-destructs when taken beyond the boundaries of this room!"

How clever to put holiday motifs on front and back. Just one thing to store.

Don't you just love applique?! I surely do! You did a good job! P.S. to gmcsewer...a couple of years ago I made placemats for my adult kid's families...Halloween on one side...Thanksgiving on the other...made myself a set too!
