The Blueberry Backroads Sweet Surprise Candle Mat Kit is an adorable project that results in a homey, rustic decoration. If you're looking to add a little color to your home then this is the perfect kit.
The Candle Mat Kit comes with assorted red fabrics, white fabric, batting, red embroidery thread and instructions. This is just enough to make a fabulous mat that you can lay on a table to put under a beautiful candle. You can also choose to frame it and hang it on the wall for a one-of-a-kind decorative piece.
The instructions are simple in that you have to cut your fabrics into the sizes listed, lay them out and start sewing your seams. You'll eventually sew your rows together and then assemble the outer boarder. There's a bit of tracing involved with the appliqué hearts depending on your preference. If you have a fabric pen you can draw the little swirly lines around the hearts and then embroider them on with the floss. Just like any quilt you'll then place your batting and backing and quilt away for the finishing touches.
The Sweet Surprise design is the perfect layout for the holiday season. With its bright red colors and warm-home feeling, you'll want to make one for all your friends as well as yourself. This is a great project to work on if you’re just getting into quilting; it’s small enough to learn all the basics without the frustration of a large quilt.
