    This particular table topper was a quilt-as-you-go piece.

    Well if it is that pretty, it should be framed and put on a prominent wall OR in a drawer! Shoot, lay it out on the first table available for compilments!

    LOL... some folks, so then you'd have to dust the cover??
    instead of throwing it in the wash, used loved and warn out is good for me.

    What would have come out of my mouth, might have been "really" never would have thought of that?
    Someone mentioned Chocolate the other day and some of the collection process of the beans,(not here) my anwser was along the lines of "Really, bummer not something I'm willing to give up, sorry I'm a woman and thats a staple!!

    P.S ... Pass the 1000 Island, and Enjoy using your stuff your way :)

    i would have had to ask her, do you cover your placemats too? how ... odd? i never heard of such a thing...and i have table runners all over the place, on our end tables, coffee table, 2 islands, the dining room table, our night stands, dressers...they are all there to protect the furniture and they get tossed into the laundry when they need it. i have been to a couple resturants that put table clothes on the tables then cover them with a glass top...but i hate that too...i like using placemats and table clothes and runner, linen napkins...that's just me...
    and of course it is yours to treat as you will...some people are funny ;)

    "But it's a table topper. It's going to get food on it," I responded.

    this is my opinion, too. Use it or don't make it.

    That's why my placemats are plastic because I don't want my log cabin to be the backdrop for a sloppy Joe. lol Honestly, I use plastic because I have not made any quilted ones. Some day..... Thanks for the laugh.
