Table Bumpers DONE!!!!!!

Hey!  I finished another project!!!  If you can not tell I'm super excited about having this project done.  It looks great.  I know why they don't sell these things in the stores...it was a pain in the behind to make.  It was super long, hard to make exact cuts and measurements.  My original plan was just to wrap the table but the bumper did not stay up. 

So I added the center piece of cloth and sewed the ends to it.  Now it's a table cozy!  You can see the way I decided to attach the ends together--sewing in 3 ties along each side.  Before adding the center, the fabric was stretching and made the bumper too long.  After sewing the final piece, it was too short.  (sigh). 

Even with its imperfections the bumper/cozy is working out really well.  The girls can't pull the end down, get to the stuff on the shelf, or hit their heads (too hard).
