Default Placemats gift ....

My long arm quilter doesn't always take money for quilting the charity quilts. So I always make her a little something for being so kind. I am so very grateful to her for her skill and time she spends helping the diabetes silent auction. So, the last time I was at her lovely home dropping off dotty's quilt, I noticed she had some green art glass displayed prominently. I thought this might be something she likes, so I made her these placemats and I am slipping in a little something to surprise her in the folds. Lunch at MiMi's gift certificate.

I hope she likes them. I know she must see it all being in the business so long.

These show fronts one with front and back and the secret roll gift. LOL...

It would be fun eating a meal set upon those oh-so-beautiful batik placemats. Super wrapping too!

That is so thoughtful of you. Even if we donate our talents, like long arm quilting for charity, it reaffirms us when someone else thanks us.

Love the place mats. What a creative idea and I'm ever so sure it will be appreciated very much.
