Kreative Kiwi's designs are awesome! This complicated looking placemat is easier than you think - and the results are amazing.

Of course I had fun with my Halloween fabric, but any fabric/thread combination will work. You can try Christmas Fabric too!
Once you master the first step consisting of two circles and 2 petal shaped applique's, then you will be able to create the whole placemat! You need to repeat the first part 4 times, and at the end of each part, you will stitch the parts together in the hoop. Now don't worry, it's easier than it sounds! The pieces fit together like a puzzle piece! SLOW YOUR MACHINE DOWN and carefully stitch the two pieces together with a zig zag stitch! once that is done, you can finish the part with satin stitches and make it look awesome. When you do the last part, which is the last segment in the circle, then you repeat the joining stitches twice - first on the bottom then on the top. finish with the pretty stitches and you are almost done!
The last piece is the centerpiece! then all you have to do is stitch the circle and the center piece together. I expected this step to be difficult or fussy, but everything fit together really well.
If you want this placemat to be reversible, then you can add fabric to the back instead of the cutaway stabilizer that I use - make sure you match the bobbin to the thread so the back will look pretty too.
Have fun with this one - it is a fantastic project to do. The cut outs and detail make it look complicated, but once you get started you will realize that it isn't! It looks amazing. I am going to make one for Christmas, too!!
