About this Product
Make the holidays a bit more festive with this scrappy candle mat.
I use a quilt-as-you-go method to construct each mat. The binding is double-fold and stitched down for stability.
This sale is for one candle mat only; any props used in the pictures are not included as part of the sale.

"Absolutely loved! Packaged really well, instructions clear and great communication with the seller. Would buy again!"
"When I saw this print, I just could not pass it up!! I had some questions about sizes and the owner of this shop was very helpful and responded very quickly. It was shipped quickly and arrived in perfect condition. I have glass to fit my kitchen table, I used this round table topper in between the glass and the wood. It adds the perfect touch!!!"
"Beautiful!! I love the color combinations of the batik fabrics! Thanks for sharing your talent with others."
"This is so nicely made. It is gorgeously composed and well-crafted with care and pride. Even the hanging hardware and label are perfectly done. Thank you! I am so happy with my beautiful purchase."
"This is much more gorgeous than the pictures because of the delightful color combinations and particularly the delicate touches of orange. It is a perfect addition to my collection."
How it’s Made
I love making art quilts, but Christmas is my all-time favorite holiday. I love the decorations, the music, the colorful lights, and most of all, the wonderful Christmas fabric that is available. Some of my Christmas fabric is over 30 years old. I started collecting in the late 1980’s and still have some of those pieces today (small pieces of them anyway). I add to my collection every year because I think it makes for a much better mix of fabrics and colors when you are creating. And once in a while I just need to take a break from the serious stuff and play. That is why my Christmas Shop is open year-around.

The basics
I have found that creating an original art quilt takes time. Plan on 5 - 6 weeks; more for larger sizes. The amount of detail will also add to the time it takes. I will have a better idea once we have discussed what you are looking for and will provide you with a time estimate and approximate start date.
The largest size I can do as one panel/quilt is 40” square. Larger sizes will be broken up into multiple panels.
Once we have talked and determined the details of your art quilt I will send you a quote spelling out the details of your order. Upon acceptance of that quote I will create a custom listing for you for the initial deposit. This deposit is non-refundable should you cancel the order. Changes or additions to the original quilt design (as described in the quote and deposit listing) may result in additional charges to you and will be due as part of the final payment. The final amount will be due upon completion of the quilt and before it is shipped.
Please note: Quilts that contain subject matter that is so specific to you that they can't be sold to anyone else will require a 100% non-refundable deposit before work is started.
Returns and exchanges
I do not accept returns on sale items and custom orders.
For all other items please contact me within 2 days of delivery. The item must be shipped back to me via Priority mail, or something comparable to how it was shipped to you, within 5 days of delivery.
Conditions of return
Buyers are responsible for return shipping costs. If the item is not returned in its original condition, the buyer is responsible for any loss in value. Your refund will be issued once I have received your item(s) and determined their condition.
