I started with a 6.5 in Star then added around to finish as 12.5 inches. It looks too big for a potholder(?) to me and that’s what I wanted it to be so… what could it be used for? A candle mat? I don’t know…have I just wasted my afternoon?…

How about a small Christmas wall hanging? It's so pretty and festive.

Lovely and certainly not a waste! Candle mat, snack mat to put a cup of coffee and cookies on, frame it and hang it, get a mini hanger for it.

It would make a great mini topper as it is--maybe for on the bathroom vanity? You could also stitch the adjoining sides together at the corners to create an open box or tray like these

It could be used under a hot bowl yo protect the table.

I vote for the box like tray that SueZQ from MN suggested. Fill it with pine cones and mini ball ornaments!

Wall hanging in a space that needs a little something. Or do you have a friend at a nursing home or assisted living that this could be hung on the door to their room/apartment? Take it now and spend a little time with that person. They will enjoy both the gift and your visit.

Place it next to microwave for hot dishes to land upon. It's pretty.

Extend it just a bit and it could be a doll blanket? Maybe for a special littler person and his or her doll or stuffed toy buddy?

Like Bearisgray, I would use it on the table for hot dishes. Very cute by the way with your fussy cut tree.
