    I planned to give my Sis this table center piece but after I had starting making it, we were out on a walk & she was telling me how much she hated holly :shock: So I plunked it on the back of the door, until the other day I decided to finish it & save it for my other Sis for next year :)
    It was in a quilt magazine which I have already given away, sorry I don't remember which one I got the pattern from.

    Approx. 24" diameter

    I think it's pretty. At least she mentioned it before she knew you were making it for her so it wasn't insulting! I'm sure your other sister will be happy with it.

    I really like your center piece. Your story made me laugh! Is'nt it funny how you find things out sometime? I am glad you have someone else to give it to. By the way I have family in B.C.

    I love your topper - the holly, the unusual shape, everything! Nice work!

    This is lovely and will be appreciated I am sure (smile). Holly is beautiful and I can see that your work was very nice. Thank you for sharing.
