They were making this topper on today's Fon's & Porter show and now that I have seen how it is made using the log cabin technique I can make one. I have not been able to locate the magazine that it is in tho. We don't have very many places here to buy magazines unless it is McCalls or some such mag. I have never seen the Fon's & Porter any where. I may try Joanns next week. I do have a topper very similar to this in the quilt frame that I bought at the Goodwill and maybe I can use it as a model. I do think your's is prettier than the one on the show today.( 11-27-2010 ) Huggies, Fay

Thank you Fay. Joanns probably will have the magazine.

I made this for a Christmas gift & am not sure how I want to quilt it either. I'm not very experienced with quilting beyond stitch in ditch so I may do that. Mine is not Christmas fabric. I'll be interested in how you quilt it.

Me again! I'm floored over your table topper!!! Is this the one called "Christmas Memories" that is in the Fons and Porter Love of Quilting Nov/Dec issue? If it is YOU should sew their models!!! They wouldn't have enough ink or paper to keep up the demand for their magazine if they showed what you can do with a pattern!!!

I bought a christmas table cloth and used it for the backing. I have stitched in the ditch all of the log cabin/star sections. Im trying to figure out what to do in the larger outer star sections.
