    I've made several by making a "lone star", putting triangles between the star points, making the skirt an octagonal (?) shape. I left it open from the outer edge to the center between 2 of the stars & finished it w/prairie points. Unfortunately I don't presently have a pic of one, as I gave them all away to family.

    After tomorrow, I will be away from a computer for about a week on a trip to CA but if you'd like to see a pic, I will see if one of my grand dgtrs can get hers out & take some pics. Send me a PM & I'll be happy to try to get them to you.

    Have a blessed day & may all your quilts be filled w/love. :lol:

    I have to laugh. We spend all that time making a beautiful skirt and then cover it up with all the packages. I finally just took a couple of yards of Christmas fabric and swirled it around the tree,

    Looked great.
