Challenge Submission: Retro Table Topper

 

 Just a few days before we came up with the idea of an embroidery challenge, I had bought this really cute Stitcher's Revolution pattern called Kitch'n Stitch'n (enter our giveaway for a copy here):

I knew without a doubt that I would be using it in this challenge.  I decided to limit myself to four motifs and make a mini-quilt for my dining room table.  It was hard to choose, but these are the four I picked:

The mixing bowls because they look so much like the Pyrex I love.

This reminded me of my Fiestaware so it made the cut.

This "Butter me up" simply because it's cute.

This one because I would love an old mixer, especially in aqua.  I think I was born in the wrong era.

I used perle cotton and a backstitch to give my stitching a solid look and to make the colors bright and shiny (and because I had it).  It was stitched on bright white kona cotton.  The quilt was made with Dream On by Urban Chiks for Moda with rick rack trim.
