Pie Anyone?




All three of these octagonal table toppers were made the same way. You sew strips together to form a strata. Then you cut the strata pieces on a 60 degree angle to form the pie shapes. The bottom photo table topper is made with pieces cut consecutively from the strata. The top two photos are constructed of pieces that are cut the same way, but you use every other piece. If you click on the photos, you should be able to see the decorative stitches used to secure the piece.
