Stitch a Little Winter Wonder

This snowflake table mat turns icy blue prints into a stunning seasonal centerpiece.

Dear Quilting Superstar,

If you’re dreaming of a winter table that feels calm, cozy, and just a little magical, this Snowflake Table Mat is the perfect place to start. With its crisp lines and icy blue palette, this design brings a soft, wintry elegance to your table — whether you’re setting the scene for Christmas dinner or simply enjoying the quieter days of winter.

Designed by Connie Kauffman, this project is a wonderful way to show off your foundation paper piecing skills. The repeating snowflake sections come together beautifully, and watching the design emerge piece by piece is incredibly satisfying. It’s the kind of project that invites you to slow down, enjoy the process, and really appreciate the precision of paper piecing.

This pattern is also a great excuse to pull out those light and dark blue prints you’ve been saving. Small cuts of fabric go a long way here, making it ideal for 1/8-yard pieces or favorite scraps. The soft contrast between icy blues and clean white fabric gives the snowflake its delicate, frosty look — and the center circle adds a lovely finishing touch.

Once pieced, the table mat becomes a true statement piece. Quilting it with a shimmering thread adds a subtle sparkle that catches the light beautifully, especially when paired with candles or winter table décor. It’s the kind of handmade detail that guests notice right away.

If you’re looking for a winter project that feels both polished and personal, this Snowflake Table Mat is a joy to make and even more rewarding to use. It’s a lovely way to bring the beauty of winter indoors — one carefully stitched snowflake at a time.
