Trying out an idea

This is a present I made for my friend. She will get it when she gets back from her Christmas away.
It started out to be coasters, but I realised the squares were much too small for coasters, so it became this!
One of those times when you try it out and then keep going till it is right.

The holly is stitched free hand on the machine, then I cut back the top layer to show the tiny gingham.

  1. So pretty and I think it works even better this way than it would have as coasters.
