"When life gives you scraps......Make Quilts"

My last completed project....My LAND OF TEA table topper.....







This was such a fun project...my friend Cheryl in Illinois sent me the fabrics and a pattern for my birthday a couple of years ago - well, I loved these fabrics from the first time I opened my gift...but didn't get around to sewing it til last year....and then didn't get around to binding it til a couple of weeks ago...

It is such a fun project....my goal for this one is a great relaxing patio tea or brunch...I have some extra teapot squares that I am turning into hotplate holders...and I will find some coordinating solids to design some fun napkins and a tea cosy and it will be all set.....
I wasn't sure what to do for the binding but then decided to take all of the leftover pieces from the quilt and join them up and do a fun patched binding - I think it turned out well.
