Very nice.

Later this year, I want to do one for my Doctor. She loves everything I make for her.

I have made several of these and the centers in mine measure about 4 inches point tip to point tip. I used the fusible foam they recommended for the first one but tried the Pellon 71 F one sided fusible for the rest.It was easier to work with I thought. I bought it at Joann's. Our Walmart also carried it. I like your pastel colors. I felt it was confusing to buy the fabrics for it until you have made one!

I think it looks great. If the hole is too big for your candles, how about putting a bowl of candy or flowers in the center instead?

Very Springy.

Do you have a link to Grandma Mary's? I have the pattern but I'm still a little unsure of how to make it. The video was to hard to watch and listen to.

Great job!
i have the pattern from poorhouse, just bought the stiffener- wow, it sure is stiff! The instructions say to sew right sides together, leaving an opening, then flip out....does this stiffener make that difficult? That is my concern.....
