I haven't been making a project every week on the Patchwork, Please Zakka Along 2.0, but this one really caught my eye:
The focus fabric was from the scrap bin (not even sure what it is?)
ETA: Memento from Amy Butlers Loce collection identified by Sarah of Fairy Face Designs and then started digging for all the just right solids to compliment it. I had just enough left of the scrap (after piecing it quite a few times) to make the binding.
I was going to topstitch around each hexagon, but decided once was enough and more would be distracting.
This is from
Patchwork, Please book by Ayumi Takahashi.
ETA: This "trivet" is 8 1/2" in diameter and the paper piecing pattern is in the book. I was unable to respond to some commenter questions.

Really lovely! I made a bag from that focus fabric, it's called Memento from Amy Butlers Loce collection. Great choice!
I like how you used solids with that centre fabric. how big does it finish?
I really like your combination of solids with the AB fabric.
How PRETTY!!!
This is gorgeous! I love the colour combination you have used!
Mary , it looks great! Is it a coaster or a mat?
What a gorgeous piece!
This is very pretty! I love the colors!
That looks awesome.
Oh how gorgeous. Look at those colors.
very nice Mary! like everything else in my life I have been terribly tardy on these projects.
This is a great little project. I agree with selecting the ones you like and only doing those. Makes it far more enjoyable.
This is so pretty. I'd like to make one myself. The dimensions are?? I suppose any one would want, 'eh? Paper-pieced??
Stunning, unique, and wowzer..
I love the topstitch! I think you made a good call to just do it around one of them.
Love the brights with the black!
Ha-I knew that fabric right off, too, glad I'm not the only fabric "weirdo" (No offense, Sarah!) I need to buy this book immediately.
