Charming Tablecloth

I have finished my charm tablecloth.  There are 729 different fabrics in this quilt.  I need to make another tablecloth for the other table in the patio.  I  love all the different fabrics that my friend gave me.  What color of thread do you think would look best on the quilt?

Another UFO finish as a top.  When it is quilted I will give it to the hospital gift shop.
  I didn't need another project but I wanted to make a Sudoku Quilt.  I found these fall fabrics and think they will be a great fall quilt.  Need to go shopping for a border fabric.

I am linking up at Sarah's to see what everyone else has been doing this week.
Happy Sewing Today.

Plan B Quilt

I bought this Bear Hugs Jelly Roll from The Quilt Corner thinking I could make a baby quilt.  It only has 20 strips so I am thinking my jelly roll quilt will be half the size.  Great!   Perfect size for a baby quilt. 
WRONG!

I sewed my strips together and this is what I got.  Strips going up and down instead of sideways.  So I regrouped and went to PLAN B.  I added borders.

 If you look at the  picture the bears are sideways. 
After the day I have had they look normal to me.
What I see is a bright, cheery little girls quilt.

What do you see?
