Another Table Topper

I found this kit online at Sew Many Quilts in Johnson City, NY. The swirling motion intrigued me. It was much easier to make than it looks. You start with a square for the center and cut off the corners so it is an octagon. The first strip you add for each round you use a partial seam. As you add the strips you cut them to maintain the angle of the octagon. I added 3 rounds to this. It finished 24" across. I think you could continue the pattern to make it as large as you want. I also like this because you only need 2 colors. I plan on making more using this pattern.
