I have a little double-sided wall hanging (13"x13") that's a wannabe table mat so I had some fun over the weekend and tried out three options for usage. I made it two or three years ago and just love the color combination. The floral was my jump off fabric and then I picked out a few fat quarters from my collection and played till I was happy with the combination. I did traditional 9 patch blocks on the front and free formed the back.
Option #2 looks great under my prayer plant and picks up the colors from the leaves.
Option #3 is where it sits at the moment till I get ready for Christmas :)
Before I forget here's the back of my "mat". I might add more stitching but I'm in no rush to do so.
So hop on over to http://sewcalgal.blogspot.com or click on the BIG button on my sidebar and join in the fun.

Hi Carol.
This is a sweet little table mat and I like it sitting near your lovely photos where it can be easily seen.
So cute, and versatile!
It does look good under the prayer plant, but you can't see it, I like the hanging off the mantle, maybe the stocking will make room for it.
These colors are beautiful. I love the warmth!
I think that is really pretty and the colors are lovely. I too like it under candle. Thanks for sharing. Love Lois

I kind of like it under the prayer plant but it so cute it's going to look good anywhere you put it.
I think Option 3 looks particularly lovely! Also, thanks so much for stopping by to see my Christmas Quilt!
I love seeing these little table mats (quilts) around the house. They bring a warmth and coziness to an area.
