Placemats for my sister

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.

WELCOME ! Nice job on the placemats.

sassy granny 07-08-2012 10:49 AM

Thanks for the idea. I just covered my chairs and need new placemats. I'll have to check with the fabric store and see if I can still get some more fabric. I don't think I had enough left, just maybe I can pull enough of contrasting fabric from my stash to make them. If so, I'm stealing your pattern. I love it.
