No, it's not Mickey Mouse in fabric!
Here are my table toppers that I made over the past few days. The table toppers are inspired by a pattern by
Libby Lehman (sorry, couldn't find a link online of where to buy the pattern). I made the large one first and it is too big to fit on the side tables by the recliners in the family room. I then made the next size down and wa-la, it fits! I only wished that I hadn't used the medium brown as the outer border as it blends in with the wooden top of the table. EDIT: Pattern by
Genii Lehmann.
I used fall leaves as the front and a Christmas print as the backing. The Christmas fabric was gifted to me a few years ago when my MIL was cleaning out a closet and discovered a box full of Christmas and other novelty fabric. At one point, she was going to make re-usable bags for gifts instead of gift wrap. She is way ahead of her time on 'Going Green'!

Those look great! I like having things like that reversible. I made DD a tablerunner once that is a maple leaf pattern on the front, and poinsettia fabric on the back. She still uses it!
they are really cute and so practical...but now all i can see is mickey!
Wow, I guess it surprises me if it is a Libby Lehman pattern, since she is known for her threadwork. They are really cool though. You did a great job!
I love your table toppers!
Fine idea, Pat, they look very nice. Reversible is an excellent idea too.
I meant to comment about these the other day. The one with the lamp shows the size of the piece much more clearly.
Goofy me, when I saw them laid out in sets of 3 I thought it looked like Mickey Mouse ears, LOL.
