You're very welcome! Not sure if this was the one you saw, as it uses 6 fabics?
Did you notice in the picture when all of the different ones done in a group that some have alternating fabrics and some have rounds of the same fabric? I imagine that the difference is in cutting the stratas. For the alternating rounds, follow directions as given (strip 1 from first set is strip 6). For the rounds to be the same, rather than flipping the second strata for cutting they are cut the same way (strip 1 is the same position in both). I like both ways, but think I prefer the alternating a bit.

It is not the exact one but it is so nice. One day I will stumble across the other one but at this point in time I will go with the one you found as I want the toppers made for this year not 2012. :). I like the alternate one.
Just have to get rid of my ironing pile and will be cutting the strips.

The 4 separate pieces were then sewn together to make an octagon. Border was a plain piece. Have searched like crazy but cannot find it again. Have material, need pattern. Anyone know it, please.
Thanks muchly.
