Fall Table Runner and Placemats

Since moving to Florida I haven't been able to see a true autumn season so I decided to make my own. I also made a valance to match. Hope you all like it. :o

Love your fall colors. I plan to make placemats and kitchen-window toppers for summer (using 'summery' fabrics)
How much fabric did you use for the toppers? Did you line them and if so, did you use the same fabric for lining?

Thanks.

I'm not much for the colors of fall, but I really, really like this. Very nice.

I did line the valance with the same material. I just measured the width of the window and then tripled it. For the runner and place mats I lined them in the same fabric as the gold on the bottom of the valance and I quilted the runner and mats in a diagonal box pattern with batting in between. I used Simplicity #5530 for the runner and mats. It calls for almost 3 yards but not sure if that included the lining. Hope this helps.

Thank you for the info. I appreciate it.
I was thinking maybe 3 or 3.5 times the window width.
