Above is a jar of candy that is topped off with a needle punch pattern I did! I love it! The candy in the jar is all a throwback of memories from the year 1949! The jar was a gift for someone special! 
The above quilt top is almost finished...I have to decide what to do about borders...any suggestions? Leave it like it is and just bind it...or put borders on..if so how many..one or two? It is for a twin size bed...the pattern I took out of the Stir Crazy Book by The Buggy Barn http://webstore.quiltropolis.net/stores_app/Browse_Item_Details.asp?Shopper_id=18942191338501894&Store_id=425&page_id=23&Item_ID=1365. I started out making a Christmas Tree Skirt, yes, then decided to take out my stash and add on and make a twin quilt! I need to figure out what to do to finish this and yes this year!!!!
Off to take out more stash and see if I have enough to figure out borders...just in case...

Oh Erin!! The jar looks just wonderful! Well done! I really must get my punch needle out and DO something! lol Love the quilt too! I think I'd be tempted to not put borders on OR perhaps just a narrow (about 3in finished) one of a plain fabric to go with? Just realised you've probably already finished it! lol My 2cents worth anyway. Love ya! Jan xxx
What a wonderful jar topper! Sure to be well loved.
The quilt looks great as it is. I guess adding borders just depends on if you need them to get to the desired size. I guess if it 'needs' to be larger, you could just add another batch of stars.
I love the needlepunch and the jar too! I don't think it needs borders.
