This is a quick and easy Christmas doily. Size is approximately 14 inches in diameter.
I used a fun Christmas fabric, felt for the backing, fusible fleece interfacing to give it substance and a fun flirty ribbon ruffle.
You can machine stitch all layers together.
I choose to handstitch the ruffle on just so the back stayed smooth.
This makes a nice protector for any holiday table.
This could be used for a centerpiece with a lovely clear glass vase or candlestick.
How would you use something like this?
Happy Holiday Creating...
What a perfect holiday piece - love the fun fabric and the ruffle is a great edging for it. I think it's too nice to put anything on, so perhaps a small vase so just the centre would be covered up.

ReplyDeleteThis is so fun! Your right, it would be so pretty with a clear glass vase on top...it's far too pretty to cover up!... I love your cuffs in the post below too! Have a great day tomorrow, Sherry! xo Paulette
ReplyDeleteDarling!! I think a bit of vintage decor right in the middle so as not to hide the fabric.

Beautiful! I don't think I would want to put anything on it! I think I would hang it on the wall, it's too pretty to cover up. keeleyxx
