Sewing Box Scraps

I recently made a seasonal table topper using Kathleen Tracy‘s pattern from A Prairie Journey.

I liked it so much! It was fast and it was easy to make! You can see that post by clicking here.

So I decided to make another table topper, or placemat, for the Christmas season.

Ta da!

It is hard to take a decent picture on a gray rainy day!

I know that you can’t see it, but all of the red and gold scraps have a metallic sheen to them.

I also quilted it with gold Sulky sliver thread that I have had in my stash forever (love this stuff)!

Have fun and carry on!

  5. That is a great table runner! Nice that you have it for Christmas, I always have good plans, but rarely get to them this time of year. I always loved the gold in the Christmas fabrics and great you have a metallic you like and it behaves!

    • Ahhh…the best laid plans, Kathleen. I am in that spot most of the time. Ha!

      I tried Sulky Sliver many, many years ago and fell in love. It behaves well for me and looks great! 🙂
