I'm starting to collect the colors for mine and I thought just the star spin could be made from FQ, but I was wrong. you'll need at least a 42" wide fabric so I'm planning to go to WM tomorrow to see if they have any fabrics on sale. They are getting ready to move across the street and they are going to discontinue thier fabrics so I best go there to get any thing if I can. I hope I can. I'm planning to put mine on the table like you have yours. Your is very pretty even if you couldn't get it to come from dsrks to lights so that goes to show, it may not make a diffrence as long as it will work out. Have a great day, Huggies, Fay
