My camera has been MIA for a couple of weeks. Hubby needed it at work. I got it back today in time to share the tablecloth project that I started over Labor Day weekend. My inspiration for the tablecloth was a pile of Halloween fabric scraps and the glitter pumpkins I made.
I started with my old Halloween jumper. I wore this about 13 years ago- I know because the boy had a matching John-John. I have trouble getting rid of old clothes that have fond memories attached to them! There was a lot of fabric in this jumper.....
I used the jumper for the center of the tablecloth and I just pieced the boarder from the scraps I had. The only cost was a black sheet from Goodwill used for backing and binding. I am not really a quilter so it is not as precise as it could be.....but it is cheerful!
Happy Halloween!

brilliant idea! I love those skull plates too. so cute.
Love it. Very creative.
Love your tablescape. Don't remember the jumper and it sure was cute. I think you now are a certified quilter or piecer. Got the picture and your B is going to print it out. I will take it to the man at the dealership. Nice picture. Glad you have your camera back. xxoo Lilly
That is so cute. It looks so festive at your table! I really like those plates, too.
Adorable! Great recycling on that fabric too!
