Bev, I have made my mom 2 table toppers. I did the dissappearing 9 patch. They both turned out really cute. For the stuffing, I used 2 layers of warm & natural. I wanted it smooth so glasses etc. wouldn't tip if setting on a seam.
I have some left over thamksgiving & halloween fabric if you would be interested. Not a lot, but some. Let me know.
