Belive it or not -I started these a year ago, and finished them this afternoon. These belong to my older daughter. Thank goodness she has been patient. I tried to make too many at one time last Easter, and got burned out on them. I had 7 panels to do today, plus putting them together. But, at least one more item off of my sewing table. LOL These are reversible and done in the hoop.

Thanks - She usually gets her things first, for she lives closer to me, but this time she had to wait. LOL

Love the fabrics that you chose. They came out so pretty. Did they take long to do?

Well - that set took me a year. LOL If you are dedicated you could probably get a set of 4 done in a couple days. I did 7 panels and put them together in an afternoon. I had some of it all ready done previously. Each placemat takes 7 panels.

oh how beautifull, i particularly love the colour you chose...i think I remember you posting others some time ago, correct. As I really love this.
Now tell me are they available for the 5 X 7 hoop.
And where to buy these....I always tell my family 'all good things come to those who wait'

For those of you that are interested - The pattern comes from Chantell's Creations - You can get the set for 5x7. My center was done on the 240x150 and the balance done in the 5x7. I did learn a trick - since this calls for batting sandwiched between the fabrics - I started using felt - less expensive, and I found that it does not cause as much dust for the machine. Too, I use WSS as the stabilizer. That way I can clean the edges some if it needs it without washing it out. And to save the WSS I use my scrap bobbin threads and stitch my scraps of WSS together to make another blank. It would work with this, but not your FSL projects. However, if you have wash away thread you could do that for your FSL too. I have not tried that, but I sure have a mess of WSS scrap to do something with.
