Blanket Stitch is Almost Done

I have just a few things to finish up and the blanket stitching on the table topper applique is finished. I am looking forward to sandwiching this and getting on to the quilting. My goal is the first of Oct. but a little past that would still be OK. I saw a bag of gourds at Walmart today that I am going to get to put in my copper bowl to use with the topper on my table. Now, have these great plans, hopefully I can finish it! If not guess the bowl and the gourds would still look nice! LOL



If you see mistakes, that is because I am human. I have sworn off trying to be perfect in my work. If it is close to what it should be, I am happy. I read blogs where the quilter is trying for perfection.....and I, unlike them, live happily in my imperfect world here, enjoying what I am doing along the way.

Hi Norma! Love the topper! What mistakes? I don't see any.

It's gorgeous! So homey and sweet. I just read that some quilters make mistakes in their quilts on purpose so they can remember humility. I think it's a nice idea!
