I wonder how many of you remember the octagonal twist design I did a couple of years ago. I thought I would see how it worked stretched to fill my 230mm x 300mm hoop. I rather like it and will use these as placemats. When he who criticises saw the first one, he said it made his eyes go funny, so I made him an alternative version! The design pack is now available from Engineered in Stitches and I have included the square hoop version from 100mm upwards.

Lovely work Sue, they way you have the flower in the middle of the mat is a great attention to detail. Just remember which mat sits where on the dining table

Love the flowers in the middle. The second one is easier for me to see. I am afraid to agree with "he who criticizes", but I understand the eye thing. This takes some work and engineering. Great designing

Oh, I like this version. I did some of your original back then, after I had started making the octagon placemats. You are such a clever lady and I thank you for sharing with those of us who don't digitize.

I remember that design. Now He who criticises will be happy that his eyes won't go funny anymore :) My favourite is the second tablemat too, as my eyes have become more sensitive lately..... Old age? hehehe....

Can you give me the web address for this set of placemat designs? I've tried several different things and not been able to find the website. Love the placemats and I like both styles. Thanks

Yep, I remember this design - even made several - which I was never able to hold on to without them being snatched up by someone and walked right out my door! LOL Great job, Sue, love the larger size! Hugs*, Deb
