Table Topper

I had a lot of trouble with this and as you can see my red is off at the top. Next one will be better.[ATTACH=CONFIG]561994[/ATTACH] I almost threw in the garbage.

You did not really discard this, did you? I don't think it's bad at all! You can donate it or if you are planning on making another one, why not use this one to audition your quilting design?

It looks pretty but if you want to fix the off set, use wonder under to make some Cardinal appliques from the border fabric. Applique about 3 around the wreath as if they are perching there. It will look as if you planned it.

It's so pretty, and you can send it to me before you throw that pretty table topper away. :)

I'm not seeing it, but then, I don't look for those things. I think it's beautiful! Love the cardinals.

it looks fine, and pretty too

my motto is 'better off done than perfect', love your topper ... we are most critical of our own work, I understand that, me too ... but don't bring it to anyone's attention and most likely they won't see it.

wonderful topper!

Thanks everyone and I may do the cardinals on the red pieces. Great idea.

Poakie 11-10-2016 12:23 PM

I think you did a good job. Yes, the cardinal idea would be a great fixer. We all learn from our mistakes, but I think its beautiful.

Nice topper. I've been there myself with wanting to throw something out (I actually did one time!).

QUILTNMO 11-10-2016 04:16 PM

Super cute. The cardinals will add more to it. Show us after you fix it. BrendaK

Definitely keep it to show your improvement on the next one.

When you make another one you could use this one as your backing. Lots of things quilt out, you know.

Very pretty fabrics and who likes perfection anyhow.

Very nice! And done with time to spare for Christmas!

You are too hard on yourself,it doesn't look bad. Like the idea of making birds to work over the boo boo.. Thanks for sharing it with us.

Very cute table topper!

sewbizgirl 11-14-2016 05:17 PM

This is cute as a button... really would love to see it with some cardinals on it, too. Great idea!

Love that border fabric. And the rest is not bad.

Becky's Crafts 11-21-2016 06:15 AM

That's a beautiful table topper!!

javin22 11-27-2016 11:32 AM

next time you want to throw it away, I will send you my address. Very pretty.

I did put some red cardinals on the red parts. I did not take a picture before I wrapped it. It was for the secret santa at the quilting guild lunch/party yesterday. I watched the person who opened my gift. I was at the table behind her. She opened the box and took it out and looked at it and folded it up and put it back in the box and that was it. Oh, well you cannot please everyone all the time.
