Last year (yeah, last year!) I decided to start a "Glorified Nine Patch" quilt (aka "Robbing Peter To Pay Paul" ). Well, I didn't get too far before I decided that curved piecing was just not my thing. So the blocks got shoved in a box and placed on a high shelf so I wouldn't have to think about them anymore.

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

You might not have like doing them, but you did a great job on them! Very nice indeed.

Beautiful Eddie!!!
Good for you to get it done even though it is smaller than intended. I have a couple projects that I could to that to as well.....

Beautiful Eddie(:)

That's neat, glad you finished it up and shared with us.

Beautiful! :thumbup:

Beautiful, as always!

oooooooomy gosh! this is marvelous.

Stunning. Love the quilting

Very nice job!
I have always admired this pattern and I have a table you can put it on!

I have the perfect table! Beautiful work.

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

Lovely 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.

Very nice, glad you finished it........Michele
Too pretty not to use.....

Beautiful! I am so glad you finished it...ummm, I have a table ;-)

Very Nice. Love the colors. It feels soooo Goooood to get UFO's done.

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
:roll:

Very nice!!! It's not really a "ufo" anymore! Great idea to finish it into something!!!!

Great Job!! and by the way, I have just the table for it to top..:)

Well done and very pretty......and what a nice job on the binding! Is it applied by machine on one side and hand sewn on the other?

Aw shucks! You beat me to it. I was going to offer MY table.

It makes a GREAT table topper! Glad you finished it!

That's too funny Eddie. I started one Robbing Peter to pay Paul years ago. Still haven't finished mine. I got tons and I mean tons of flannel to make a huge one to cover our king sized bed. Ya ya ya Great idea at the time. Good grief I must be a knuckle head. Don't have a clue where it even went to, probably in our attic.

Eddie your table topper is very pretty and so sharp with your white back ground. Really pretty, wanna tackle my mess I got me into? :? :shock: :roll:

The pattern and the quilting are awesome!

Eddie you might not have enjoyed making these blocks but as usual your finished project came out just FABULOUS!

That is wonderful! The circles are perfect. I am so glad you finished it and it will make some table very happy!

Great job... I love it. Gee... maybe another one to add to my list.
