Flower Table Topper in the Make Modern Magazine Issue 64

 Hi There!

Anyone afflicted, can attest how the cost of Christmas presents can add up…

In 2015 I was short of funds to spare on presents (for various costly reasons, including a wedding and house move). I decided to make something instead of buying.

The Poinsettia Table mat was born. I like the design, if I may say so myself, the problem with it was, that all the seams meet in the middle and create a bothersome bulk.

This year I revisited this design to see if I could re-create it in a different way using Foundation Paper Piecing. I tried this out a few times using alternative colour combinations. Proud to say, that the Make Modern Magazine has accepted to publish my efforts as the Flower Table Topper.

Take care,

Rita
