Summer Floral Table Topper Quilt or Wall Hanging | Gift for Her
The beautiful fabrics in this star quilt are a mix of flowers and butterflies. With a definite summer vibe the florals are vibrant and eye catching. Use this as a quilted table topper or you can hang on the wall. A special feature is the custom quilting that adds texture and interest.
This small square quilt measures about 21 inches sq (53 cm) and will come packaged with care instructions.
If you want to hang this quilt please note that it does not come with a hanging sleeve. There are many simple and easy ways to hang small quilts online. However, if you wish to have a hanging sleeve, I am happy to add one. Just leave me a message.
Quilting is done by freemotion, which is a hand guided machine stitching technique, not computer. This means that your quilt will always be one of a kind as the artistry of the stitching is unique to each piece.

Features
I always use quality fabrics and thread. In addition, I am conscientious about making sure I use a full seam allowance. I never leave fabrics holding together by a few threads. This ensures a quality, handmade item, that will withstand normal care and use for many years.
The inner batting layer is usually Pellon or Hobbs 80/20. Occasionally I use a bamboo batting.
Binding is always double thickness and attached by machine for added durability, with neat mitered corners.
The nice thing about quilts is that the more you use them the softer and more snuggly they become. Don’t be afraid to use them wherever you want to be. After all, we wear cotton fabrics everyday in our clothes… your quilt won’t fall apart before it gets well loved!
Care
Care
I have often washed my own quilts in with a regular wash load, with no regrets. However, it is still recommended to use a gentle cycle, mild soap and tumble drying on low heat. (** Note: I rarely prewash my fabrics. Expect a small amount of shrinkage on the first laundering.) It is the tumble drying that achieves the soft crinkly look that we associate with handmade quilts. If you prefer a flatter look, lay flat to air dry… do not dry in the dryer.
Remember that sunlight will fade any fabric, and your quilt is no exception. So; have a care when you leave it outside frequently or in a sunny window.
