Default Placemats for my sister

[ATTACH=CONFIG]347418[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]347419[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]347420[/ATTACH]

My sister gave me fabric left from re-covering her dining room chairs. Using that diamond fabric, I made these placemats for her. It was such fun designing, piecing, and quilting them! She was very happy with the results! I hope you all enjoy them too.

This is my first post and I actually figured out how to post pictures! I really enjoy reading the QB.
