I make each item with care, but there may be slight imperfections in the seams. I hope you will enjoy using it. The thread ends are secured with overlapping stitches. I used fine-weave, supple Shin-mos (100% cotton), which is finer than standard bleached cotton. The outer circle is cross-stitched with white thread. I also sell on other sites, and the listing may be removed. Approximately 32.5cm x 33cm
