Table Topper Blog Hop
FOR
They have so many wonderful products. This table topper is just one of many for you to enjoy.
Here we go!
I do not know about you but I have a ton of orphan blocks. Some I have made for tutorials. Some for swaps that I decided did not fit the plan. Some to practice a technique and some for quilts I started and never finished.
I decided to take one of my favorites and turn it into a table topper mini quilt.
This is one of my favorite paper piecing blocks from
Called
Wheel Of Fortune.
I have made this block several times and is still my go to block.
Here it is in 1930's prints.

I also have orphan squares. So I put these together to remind me of my quilters palette quilt.
I love to look at this for color and fabric inspiration.

A little bit of whimsy.
Using a Japanese Print, I have been hoarding saving for a long time.

Until I started following this blog hop, I never thought about those orphan blocks. Well they won't be orphans much longer. Thanks for the ideas and great job.
LOVE LOVE LOVE the peek-a-boo quilt. That is super cute and my kids love to play hide-and-seek so I think I would love to make one of these for their bedrooms.
I love your Peekaboo. It's a quilt that would make anyone smile when they see it.
Very sweet little quilts. My favourite is the peek-a-boo.
I love your minis especillay the peek-a-boo. How clever!
Peek-a-Boo stole the show!! Gotta make one for myself!

I have to agree with the other comments, your toppers are great and the Peek-a-boo is just wonderful! Thanks for sharing!
So cute Jane especially the peek a boo mini! Great job!
Jane your Peek a Boo quilt is certainly a cutie but I'm intrigued by the Wheel of Fortune. It's paper piecing...I'm like Samm, I find that method tricky. Whatever it is I love it. blessings, marlene
What fun Jane!! I love them all, of course :) But the Peek a Boo has to be my favorite :) :) I too like your wheel of fortune ... may have to give that one a try one of these days! Yay You!
ALL very cute! The window with curtains is VERY inspirational!! One for each holiday!! Wouldn't the kids love to see Santa looking out at them?! or a witch? or a Ghastlie?! The list goes on and on and on!!

Great toppers and the peekaboo one is especially cute.
Love it the table toppers that is. They are wonderful
what a great way to show off "orphan blocks" ☺ I relly like the squares and usually that's not my style--here i think it's small enough to showcase them without feeling overwhelming.
Even the hanger caught my eye--love the art deco/craftsman motif.
What sweet minis...love the Peek a Boo!!! TFS

Your little Peek a Boo is so cute! It's my favorite. It's difficult to not be distracted by the darling sweetie-pies over on the right side. Precious!
Your Quilters Palette quilt is amazing!

Peek a boo is wonderful. Now you get to look at the SAVED fabric all of the time.
Oh, I love the peek-a-boo table topper. See? Aren't you glad you "saved" that fabric for this project?
