Un-seasonal

You might remember I mentioned an unseasonal idea that popped into my head the other night. Well, despite the muggy, humid yuckiness that seems to be the flavour of the month around here I got on and made the Seasonal table-cloth! My original thinking was that I'd use (word beginning with C) fabrics but eventually sense prevailed and out came The Pips! I decided that I could use this table cloth all through Autumn/Winter if I wanted to, whereas (word beginning with C) fabrics would have a more limited usage. I refuse to utter the word beginning with C until December! So I started with 24 layer cake slices and some grey kona solid.....
and after much sweating, sorry, perspiring (I am a lady after all) I ended up with this:
Again, I still need to back and bind it but I love it!! This is what it looks like on the table. Please excuse the clutter in the background :)
And to prove that this is definitely an unseasonal tablecloth here's a shot of the table next to the air-cooler!
I actually tried to make a note of how I made this one so that if anybody actually fancied making one of their own I'd be able to point them in the right direction. So if you're interested just ask and I'll see what I can do, if not I'll just file the notes with the many others I have scribbled down over the last year :) Catch you again soon!
