a Christmas table topper is born.

 

From lemons to lemonade, a Christmas table topper was born.  Funny thing, I had no intention of even making a table topper this year.  

I was happily working on my first Christmas quilt, when the little mishap took place.  

 However, now, I could not be happier.

And here is the Christmas quilt that has waited so patiently in the back ground as I finished the topper.

It is pinned and ready to be hand quilted.  I am debating on whether or not to use this quilt for my tutorial.  I work the same way, regardless of size, so it would certainly work.  Stay tuned.  

Isn't the backing a fun print?  I just love it!

And last but not least, my red and green table runner that I made last year.  I just loved bringing it out.  On a side note those stars about killed me to create, I felt like I was all thumbs at the time.  

But Allison has a fabulous tutorial and I have already made a quilt using it.  It would be a nice pattern to use again for a table runner that would replace this one after Christmas.
