I've been itchin' to stitch something Christmas since July, so since one of the designs in Table Cozees II looks like a star, I decided to sew it up in Sandy Gervais' new Merry Medley fabrics plus a dark green of Lisa Bongean's Primitive Muslin.
In this pattern I used the red for the dark & the large triangles the same as the border - the pretty green Christmas print - putting red cornerstones in the first border! That's what's fun with the Table Cozees patterns - you can move fabrics around, mediums & darks - & still have a great look! This pattern is actually just 4 blocks of Old Maid's Puzzle to make the center of the little quilt.

Then, the larger triangle units - - - - - - - - -
Sew the blocks together - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Add the borders & it's ready for the scallops.
I use Darlene Zimmerman's Easy Scallop for doing all of my scallops on my quilts. It's just so very quick & easy! Of course, with the scallops, you must use a bias binding.
The Table Cozees are just 19" square & I machine quilt them myself! Fun!
Your table topper is absolutely beautiful Evonne...love the fabrics and your quilting! TFS
