I came over from Stash Manicure after following your tutorial. I have to go over it again as I am a bit slow on those tutorials! I love that color combination so seasonal!
ReplyDeleteI have had you in my favourite-list for some months by now. Every now and then I check it out. Nice for someone who are quite new in quilting, all to learn some more. I´ll think I make your tabletopper as a Christmasgift to a friend who once said that her sewingmachine gets shaky when she approach, that means she isn´t sewing anything at all!
