I found a great tutorial for a table topper on Moda Bake Shop. It whipped up in no time at all, and I'm pretty pleased with the outcome. It would be a good table topper for a rectangular entryway table or maybe on a pretty big dining room table. I'm not sure what I'm going to do with it, because it seems pretty darn big to me!
I also learned another lesson to either trim the darker seam allowance or press toward the dark. You can kind of see a shadow of the darker seam allowance behind the white Moda muslin. Oh well! It still is very pretty.
I also am making another baby quilt for a friend's new baby. It is her first...a girl who weighed over 8 pounds! Luckily all of my kids weighed 7 pounds or less. I had one friend whose son was 11 and a half pounds when he was born!!!!!
The fabric is Michael Miller and I chose 3 colors. I think it looks alright. I'm not sure about what kind of quilting design to use. I am stalled at this point.
The backing is a pretty floral swirly print. I'll post a finished photo soon...once I figure out how to quilt it.
