Wow, I hope you show your sister all these compliments! I love the checkerboard idea for a table topper. The watermelon theme is great. Did you know the topper was a watermelon theme before buying the cake, or was it a coincidence?

Adorable......I know she did this on her own, but I would love this pattern or atleast her measurements of the center to get started.

She said that she looked up an official checker board online to figure out how many squares there were on a board and it has 64 squares (8X8) so she made that many and her's were 3 in squares but you could make them whatever size you want. I think she said that she was going to get big buttons for the checkers.
