Table pad
I am still working on getting my Christmas pictures onto a smilebox, so when that is done, my Christmas pictures will be posted. I belong to a couple of UFO groups (unfinished objects) and my last finish of the year was this table pad. I got the block as an orphaned block a few years ago at my guild spring rummage sale. It came with all sorts of fabric for finishing it. So I sewed on the side borders and realized that the top was about an inch longer than the bottom. The lesson here is "don't always assume other quilters make everything square" I know now why it was an orphaned block. The original maker got fed up with it. I took it all apart and squared it up. I made dimensional flying geese for the border and offset them. I like the way it turned out.
