A few weeks ago I decided to use up all my fall fabric scraps - I've had them for years, and I WANT to buy NEW fall fabric!
So I made this table topper. I used flannel for the batting because I didn't want it 'puffy' on my table.

After tomorrow, it will be packed away with the Fall decor 'til next year.

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone :)

Gorgeous!! Was the mission accomplished? Did you use your all your stash? Do you get more fall fabric next year?

Beautiful work. What will you do with your Christmas/winter fabrics?

I've been thinking about that :wink:
I've always thought the best time to make something with Christmas fabrics is in January :lol: (no pressure :thumbup: )

I don't know.....I'd have to leave it out a few more days and enjoy it longer. It's too pretty to put away so soon.

Ditter43 11-24-2010 08:44 PM

That is really pretty! You did a good job on it!! :D :thumbup:

hperttula123 11-24-2010 08:52 PM

That is so pretty! I agree, I'd keep it out just a little longer.

lpsewing 11-24-2010 08:52 PM

That is such a nice tablecloth and I like the idea of a flannel backing.Thanks for sharing another reason to buy fabric!!

Really pretty!

KathyAire 11-25-2010 01:36 AM

Lovely table topper. Nice quilting, as well. I've used that pattern. Is it called 'Slide Show'? Good job.

deema 11-25-2010 01:38 AM

Oh that is just stunning! Very beautiful fall quilt. I think I might just "borrow" that pattern! I have a beautiful leaves fabric that I haven't had the heart to cut into because I couldn't find the right project...this one seems pretty good! :)

sewhappy57 11-25-2010 01:41 AM

Wow gorgeous! :thumbup:

pjustice63 11-25-2010 02:50 AM

Tooooo pretty. What a great use of the pattern. I made it in orientals but like yours better.

Patched 11-25-2010 05:35 AM

Love this quilt, the pattern and the colors. And a Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family.

Vanessa17 11-25-2010 06:30 AM

so pretty!

sidmona 11-25-2010 06:31 AM

Very pretty! It really shows off the colors of fall.

greencat 11-25-2010 06:33 AM

Great idea and I really like the pattern you used. Some of these prints are too nice looking to cut up small. This really shows them off!

sherriequilts 11-25-2010 06:46 AM

Brilliant! Love the quilt, the fabrics, and the pattern.

Julianna 11-25-2010 07:01 AM

I am inspired once again! That is a wonderful use of scraps ans still uses the beautiful patterns. This one I WILL do.
(Although probably next year as Christmas stuff is coming into the sewing room tomorrow)

CarrieAnne 11-25-2010 07:43 AM

So pretty!
