This post may contain affiliate links which won’t change your price but will share a commission.This is a super fast and easy table topper that would make a perfect gift or accessory as it takes no time at all to make when you use the AccuQuilt Sleigh & Snowflakes die.
I have also included templates for two snowflakes in case you would like to make this but don’t have an AccuQuilt cutter.
Snowflake Blues Table Topper
Finished size is 19″ x 19″
GO! Fabric Cutter:
GO! Cutting Dies:
- Sleigh & Snowflakes #55322
- GO! #55017 2 1/2″ Strip Cutter
Fabric:
- 1 fat quarter light blue for the Snowflake applique
- 1 yard dark blue batik for the background, backing and binding
- 19″ x 19″ batting
- Heat n Bond Lite
- Snowflake templates
The Sleigh & Snowflakes die has 2 different snowflakes on it and both are used to make the Snowflake Blues fast and easy table topper.
Cutting:
Light Blue Batik – Cut a strip 4 ½” wide and apply Heat n Bond Lite to the back following directions on the package.
Cut the strip into 4 ½” squares. Do this before running the fabric through the GO! die cutter.
Carefully lay the fused fabric over the snowflake dies and cut them out.
Save this for later!
Don't worry, I promise not to spam you.
Cut the background dark blue batik into a 20-inch square.
Fold in half and then fold again to create fold lines to help with placing the die-cut applique snowflakes on the background.
I placed one of the snowflakes in the center of the table topper and had one snowflake that I didn’t use.
Choose your favorite way to applique the die cut snowflakes.
I use a vintage 15-91 Singer sewing machine that only does straight stitch so I did a free motion applique and used an Aurifil thread that matched perfectly.
I used a dark blue Aurifil thread for the background quilting, the color match perfectly.
Once it was all quilted I trimmed it to 19″ x 19″ and added the binding.
I used the GO! #55017 2 1/2″ Strip Cutter to cut the binding.
Machine or hand stitch your binding.

Thank you for the pattern for the snowflakes! I don’t have the space for a GO or Cricut! Still doing things old school! 😊👍🏻
Great bird photos, Connie. No wonder they come to your place. You spoil them with special food.
I love the snowflake table topper. I’d make it even though our climate is not cold.
I now have so many of your patterns and tutorials I’m going to have to put the names in a hat and draw one at a time to make. They are all so lovely I don’t know where to start.
Reviewing this pattern but puzzled. The needed items were two fat quarters which measure 18×20. But the fabric for the background fabric is 19×19” square. Please clarify.
Thanks for catching that error Vicki, it should be 1 yard of dark blue that will be used for the background, backing and binding.
Love anything snowflake. Just finished my autumn quilt and got it hung, I did I LOT of reverse sewing on that one – and this snowflake is the perfect next step. My very first ever quilt was a snowflake (dove in the deep end!) Thanks!
Hope the move goes smoothly, one box at a time.
That is really pretty. Love those snowflakes!
