Le Petite finish

The pattern selected for Le Petite for December is Prairie Point Christmas by Cara at the Moda Bake Shop.

I used all Folklorique by Joanna Figueroa and Lisa Quan for Moda:
It was a lot of fun to make.  I used the paper bag method of choosing where to put each prairie point.  I think I'll add one more border.

I have the pattern ordered for January, but won't be able to make it because we'll be in Florida for the month and I'm not bringing a sewing machine along.

Thank you to Amy of Lanie Jane for the cutest key fob:

And thank you to Tammy of A Content Life for this Hoot-N-Nanny Tote pattern:

Nice, What will you use for the Border you are adding? It looks like you used all your scraps.
And how will you quilt it to keep the 3D effect?
