To make napkins, take a 16" pizza pan. Draw around the pizza pan on newspaper, fold in half. This is your pattern to the 1/2 circle napkins. Place this on your fabric and cut out 4 napkins on 2 different coordinated fabrics. (4 half circles from each fabric). Place right sides together. Stitch with 1/4" seam. Leave 1 1/2" opening to turn. After turning, stitch around all edges 1/8" seam. Now you have 4 reversible napkins. Press. Fold from left about 4-5" , then accordian fold the rest to look like a Christmas tree. It takes about 1 yd of each fabric for the 4 napkins. Hope you enjoy the tute.

I've seen pictures of these and it just now dawned on me how to fold them to get them to look lik a Christmas tree. You have to start off center! Duh, bad brain, bad! I love your pizza pan idea, I have a large one that I think will work wonderfully.
