Opinion, please - quilting for placemats
I'm making some quick placemats for my mom. I've taken her on several trips to Maine and when I saw these charm squares they reminded me of our trips. I'm trying to figure out if I really need to do any quilting in the squares. I sort of want the fabrics to stand on their own in this case, plus I don't really want to do 6 thead breaks per placemat just in the squares. I'm using Stiff Stuff by Sew Lazy for the batting layer, so I don't think I probably need to quilt any closer. The squares are 4" finished. I've done 2 close rows of quilting in the sashing and 2 rows around the border. The red at the top is the binding fabric. Do you think I can get buy with the quilting that is there now?
