🍂 Creating a Cozy Quilted Thanksgiving Tablescape
Thanksgiving is all about gathering around the table - sharing good food, laughter, and memories. Adding quilted décor to your tablescape is the perfect way to infuse warmth, texture, and a handmade touch into your celebration. With GE Designs patterns, Lil’ Bundles, Fat Quarter Bundles, and fall fabric collections, you can transform your dining space into something that feels both festive and personal.
🧵 Start with a Quilted Table Topper
A beautiful quilted table topper sets the stage for your tablescape. It’s the perfect foundation for layering dishes, candles, and centerpieces. Patterns like Strip Search (from the Stripology book) create an eye-catching design full of movement and texture - especially when made in autumn-inspired fabrics.
For that cozy fall palette, reach for the Acorn Hollow or Olive Grove Fat Quarter Bundles. These bundles feature warm oranges and golds and deep teals that capture the heart of the season.
🍁 Add Quilted Placemats for Personality
Nothing says “welcome” like a handmade touch at each place setting. Quilted placemats add warmth and let you show off a bit of your creative flair. Try the Fall Appetit pattern or use one of our Lil’ Patterns for a quick, fun make.
The Harvest Blooms Lil’ Bundle is perfect here - The palette features a harmonious blend of floral, stripe, and tonal prints in a rich fall palette. Pair them with mini pumpkins, candles, or fall leaves for an inviting autumn vibe.
🌾 Complete the Look with a Quilted Table Runner
A quilted table runner pulls your tablescape together beautifully. It adds color, movement, and a focal point for your centerpiece. For something striking, try the I Love Fall Most of All Lil’ Bundle -The palette blends deep navy and midnight blue with soft creams, airy aquas, and pops of pumpkin orange.
🎨 Mix & Match for a Layered Look
Don’t be afraid to mix prints and textures - that’s part of the charm! Combine fabrics like Whispering Grasslands and Gleaned bundles to create a lively yet coordinated look. Add quilted coasters, fabric napkins, or even stuffed fabric pumpkins to bring playful texture to your table.
Each handmade detail tells a story and adds character - your guests will notice (and love!) the effort.
✨ Wrap It All Up
With just a few quilted elements, you can turn an ordinary table into a warm, welcoming Thanksgiving centerpiece. Whether you choose classic fall tones or a more modern mix, GE Designs’ fall bundles and patterns make it easy to create décor that’s both beautiful and meaningful.
Gather, create, and celebrate - and let your quilting bring everyone a little closer this holiday season.
