PROJECTS & IDEAS | TABLETOP

Harvest Table Topper

The warm colors in this table topper celebrate autumn's bounty using Mary Koval's Harvest fabrics for Blank Quilting. Wild Goose Chase blocks alternate with 10-1/2" squares cut from a cornucopia print. A border print fabric of fall fruits makes an ideal outer border.

For a beautiful Thanksgiving table, think about placing this table topper on point then setting the table with earth-tone or deep purple dishes.
