A Beautiful Quilted Centerpiece with a Twist

This Will Be Lovely In Whatever Colors You Choose!

This clever little table topper will be lovely with blue and white dishes. The loops around the outside edge add a sculptural touch but the quilt will be lovely without them.

Choose a small floral print for the background fabric and select coordinating blue prints to go with it. You may already have what you need in your stash.

While we love the blue and white, this would be lovely made up in your favorite color. We can easily imagine it in red and white, and also in lavender, green and white. Autumn colors would be charming too.

Have fun with this pattern. It’s simple to make and before long you could have one made for yourself and another to give as a gift. The loops are cording inserted into a bias tube and cut to size. It’s not hard to do but you can leave it off if you want to.

The finished quilt, by designer Barbara Clayton and from Free-Quilting.com, is 16″ x 16″.
