Making the Turkey Table Topper

Step 1 Using the template in the link above, trace shapes onto the paper side of fusible web, fuse to desired fabric, and cut out shapes. Fuse to the 10" gold stripe square and zig zag stitch to secure appliques in place. Square up to measure 9-1/2" square.

Step 2 Lay out (16) 3-1/2" squares around the turkey block.

Step 3 Sew (3) 3-1/2" squares into columns and sew to opposite sides of the block. Sew (5) 3-1/2" squares into a row. Make (2). Sew to the top and bottom of the quilt block.

Step 4 Layer the turkey top with batting and backing, baste the layers together, and quilt as desired. Trim backing and batting even with the quilt top and use the gold stripe binding strips to bind.

Enjoy this turkey on your Thanksgiving table!
