    I was trying to do my dresden plate block and i kinda messed it up. So I undid the threads and tried to redo it, when I tore my background white fabric. So I made it into a place mat or it could be used to stick a flower vase on or something.

    I make something similar and sell it as a trivet. You know you use it to set dishes on at the table. You can also use it under a lamp. I love dresdens and friendship circles. Yours is very pretty. :D
