Thanksgiving Tablescapes
Creating a beautiful tablescape for Thanksgiving with quilted decor can add warmth and a personalized touch to holiday gatherings. Here’s a look at some ideas to incorporate GE Designs patterns and fall Bundles and Lil’ Bundles to create a cozy, festive setting.
Start with a Quilted Table Topper
A table topper is an easy way to build a layered tablescape foundation. GE Designs patterns like Strip Search (from the Stripology book) bring intricate designs to the table, ideal for fall colors and patterns. Try using rich, warm fabrics from our Woodland & Wildflower Lil’ Bundles or Dancing Daisies Lil’ Bundles to add seasonal hues. Both bundles are packed with earthy tones and warm, golden highlights that capture the essence of fall.
Placemats for Individual Style
Quilted placemats can bring out each guest’s unique style and add a welcoming feel. Patterns like Fall Appetit or splitting one Lil’ Pattern are perfect for creating placemats that feel both rustic and refined. Our Pumpkin and Spice Lil’ Bundle is a great choice, featuring burnt oranges, deep greens, and hints of crimson that match well with other fall accents like pumpkins or candles.
Table Runners for That Extra Charm
A quilted table runner down the center of the table can make the space feel complete. To emphasize a central decor item, the Pumpkin Licorice Lil’ Bundle is a cozy pick for runners, it combines deep, spicy pumpkin hues with classic black and cream tones, creating a striking palette perfect for fall. Make a longer table runner like Lil’ Stella with the Juniper Lil’ Bundle by doubling the pattern to create a bold, continuous look.
Mix and Match for a Dynamic Look
One of the best parts of a quilted tablescape is the ability to mix and match. Using different fabrics from our fall bundles like Dancing Daisies and Pumpkin and Spice, you can create a lively, dynamic look without clashing. Handmade napkins, fabric pumpkins, or even quilted coasters can add a touch of whimsy and creativity that guests will love.
Add a Personalized Touch
Personalized name cards or small quilted gift bags at each place setting make for a thoughtful addition. These can be made using scraps from the bundles and give guests a small memento from the day.
With a little creativity, these quilted elements can make any Thanksgiving tablescape feel extra special. The GE Designs fall bundles are perfect for this season, combining fall’s richness with quilting’s cozy charm to make a memorable holiday setting. Happy quilting!
