Table Topper

This is the table topper that I made for a friends wedding from a 5 FQ pack. I was going to do a pieced back, but couldn't get them the same size, so just used 4 squares of the backing, and wrapped the backing around as the binding. I did the quilting on my domestic machine (not my longarm) as I can't pickup my longarm and move it to the beach!

This quilt top started off as a Bento Box, and then arranged with the cross in the middle by my 10yo... I wasn't sure whether to do a long table topper, or a square!

When wrapping, we used shear curtain fabric that I'd been cutting up for small projects and I made a cross for the bow.  I found the idea for the driftwood and sea shell cross at My Sophia Ryan... We have so many shells and pieces of driftwood just outside the door I didn't even need to walk down to the beach. 

And this dress is one of the few my mom saved from years ago... Here is my 7yo wearing it... She loves it!
