I love this. It would be like making the octagon table toppers, but starting with a very small center piece. Thanks fr sharing.

That is neat - something to try - - - being a new quilter, my only thought is would it get thick or heavy with all of those seams?

I have saw this patternbefor in a book. I thought this would be interesting with black gray and white and use black/white picturesor blackor brown and use gold and cream with the sepitone pictures and make a wall hanging for my brother with his 2 sons. Just for a keepsake.But this pattern is so pretty made in a quilt,

I like how they avoided the dreaded "Y" seam. Clever!
