Kari's new home and Dr. Who table topper

January is here but I am just getting started...

Kari moved into a new home in Houston.  So right after Christmas, I drove down there and have not sewn anything in 2015.  Maybe my goal of a table runner a week will start in February.
Here is a picture of Kari's new house.  Yes, those are palm trees in the back yard.

I did get the circle project done.  It morphed into a Dr Who themed table topper.  Here it is --- for how discouraged I was at one point, it is not too bad.  I had to applique the brown center to the boarders to get the curve correct.  I liked the circles and they were fun to do.  The border was more fun than expected, I just started doing different things in each color and it all worked out.  The tardis is a label that I ordered off the web.  I put angelina behind it.




I am going to do a large table topper (oval 42 by 60 in) as my next project.  I bought material at a very cool quilt store in McPherson Kansas.  Here is the rough sketch.
