This very simple star “snowflake’  sparkles as a 3-star runner (24.5″ x 11″)  OR as a smaller 11” square table/candle mat that features a solitary star.  The border edges are embroidered with a beautiful timeless vine design.  A variegated thread adds subtle color changes to the vine, which is also accented with Swarovski crystals and buttons. The stars are embellished with metallic thread and crystals, while the background has scattered seed beads that only add to the sparkle!  Both photo models are made with felted woven wool.  While the pattern is written for wool or wool felts, this can easily be done with cottons/batiks.   I have included a photo of a batik version – just for inspiration!  This little simple star has so many possibilities!
