Curved piecing may not be your thing but you sure did that thing well. Very nice table topper.

Nicely done - with the emphasis on DONE. ;) You're brave for even tackling it. I've admired curved piecing but haven't attempted it.

I saw that box yesterday and had an epiphany - why not take the blocks that I had made so far and turn them into a table topper and call it done? So I did. My grandiose ideas of a large quilt in this pattern have shrank down to the table topper you see before you now. Better a tiny done UFO than an unfinished UFO, right?

It measures 30" x 30". Now I just got to find a table to top it with. :D

hey, eddie & family, i have located the perfect table. it is not exactly 30X30 but close enough. and i know exactly where you can find the table...in our kitchen. my husband thinks your table topper would be perfect. nice job :) ....johnnye
