Isn't this bundle so fun and summery?!  I had a lot of fun sewing with these lemonade prints!

I decided to make a simple table topper out of the bundle and I love how it turned out! This is a BIG block - but it is super simple to put together! 

The great thing about this project is that you can make the entire project with a FQ bundle and a little extra white background fabric!  The other awesome thing is that this can easily be made in an afternoon! I love quick projects!

Alright, let's get started!
