Hi Cuties, I’ve finished 12 of the placemats so far. I’ve done 2 of the first 6 designs. I don’t particularly like this week’s one so will give it a miss.
I sewed a lovely Christmas fabric for the back that I extended by an inch and a half and used as the binding. These were all made in my biggest hoop and have finished up about 12 and 1/2 by 8 1/2. Love Chris
234474These are lovely, i like the way you have changed the colours about.

Thanks Tonya, I certainly hope so, of course once plates are put on them you won't see them. I think I'll keep the plates off and they can put them on themselves when luncheon is served. Love Chris

Chris, I wouldn't be surprised if they took a napkin for a mat and didn't want to mess up these gorgeous pieces. You definitely give me some ideas and inspiration...now to just get all the customer's quilts done and start my stuff! lol

Thanks Carolyn, hoping you are keeping well up in your part of the world. I bet it's starting to get chilly!!! Love Chris
360635These 12 make a very pretty picture. I know your table will be lovely. It's a lot of hours of stitching and a lot of fabric and thread, but the end result is so very bright and cheerful.

Hi Caroline, no when I saw it, I thought it a bit too, how do I say it, not up to par! I'll wait to see what the next 5 are like. Love Chris
