Very nice table topper. Love the colors and you did a great job with the flying geese ruler.

I'm going to use a single thickness of unbleached muslin as my "batting." Just a little something for the seams to nestle into, so three pieces of fabric - top, faux "batting", and backing.

That is, AFTER it's been washed. As the fates would have it, the pieced top was doused with apple cider during Thanksgiving dinner. No cranberry, no pickled beets, just sparkling apple cider.

That's exactly what I thought. It would be a shame if that lovely top got stains all over it. Enjoy your day.
