Absoultely BEAUTIFUL!!!! Wish I had a mantel, but just pellet stoves here. But I bet something like that would look great around the top of my China Cabinet. You've inspired me!!!!! But it will have to be next year. Did you have a pattern?

You did a great job, it turned out so beautiful.

Thank you for all your kind comments.
I bought an E pattern,

because I liked the design, but then found it needed Fusible Tricot for backing, (which I couldn’t find available in the UK ) and a serger, which I didn’t have, so I redesigned it, adding bells.
I think the hardest part was actually finding the fabrics I was happy with, but these two really sang out to me.

It is beautiful. It would look perfect on my mantle:)

That is so warm and wonderful!

This is absolutely gorgeous. Well done.

I really love this mantel piece--better than any I've seen before. Donna

Great job!!!!

Very beautiful!! Love the fabric choices and tassels.

Very very pretty. Love the tassels.
