Lesley, I see you are getting so many responses!! Your table centre is just absolutely unique and AWESOME!!! Every detail is perfect!! I am in awe of you! Will you share where you got the pattern from? Pretty please?!? I know I can't do as good a job, but would love to see the pattern, and maybe give it a try! Thanks so much for sharing! Happy New Year everyone! Charlotte

Quilting Charlotte and others, I got the original pattern from an old magazine - I lent it to a friend before Christmas, so I can't quite remember which one, but I promise to get it back and tell you all. The original just had the circle of holly leaves as applique, and where I have some applique ones in the corners and centre of the sides, it was just quilted in the corners with holly leaves. As far as I remember, that was it as far as quilting goes, I added all the rest as part of my adaptation. I promise to post a pic of the original when I get the magazine back.

Thank you everyone for your lovely kind comments. Happy New Year to you all.
