Top It Off Challenge!
I can't believe it's almost the holiday season! This year had passed so quickly and it's been full of change!
This month's Island Batik Ambassador Challenge is to create a table topper with applique! The fabrics showcased in this post were given to me by Island Batik as a part of the ambassador program.
When I was planning for this month's challenge I wanted to make a table topper that would match the size of my table and utilize some new fun techniques or products. I decided that I wanted to make a winter-themed table topper with snowflakes!
Using Odif Fabric Booster, I was able to make my white snowflakes like I would using paper and cut out 5 different snowflakes! I used some of the blue fabric from the Blueberry Patch collection that reminded me of a holiday blue!
Then I used Odif 606 Permanent Fabric Adhesive to permanently adhere the snowflakes to the blue fabric. I longarm quilted a swirly motif that reminded me of the wind and finished off the table topper!
Quilt facts:
Pattern: Freeform Snowflakes
Finished Size: approximately 9"x44"
Fabric: Island Batik - Blueberry Patch and solid White
Thread: Aurifil 2024 50wt for binding and So Fine 401 for longarm quilting
Batting: Hobb's 80/20

I absolutely love your snowflake table runner! It looks so fun to make!
I was excited when I read that you would be sharing your method for the snowflakes as part of the partners in design gift hop! I’m very interested in how you did it. Looks lovely!
I never thought to use permanent glue…truly clever idea…love you table runner
Great runner! I want to try some Terial Magic for some stiffening and have an idea or two for some projects for our gifting blog….I wonder how the Odif and Terial compare…some reserach in my future.
