I remember buying those first few plaid fabrics and thinking, "how many different plaids can there be?" HA! Little did I know. This remained unfinished for so long because the original pattern called for applique, which I didn't know how to do at the time, so it got put away for "later." Well, it's later! It finally occurred to me that the quilt as is, without applique, had a sort of masculine feel to me, so would do very nicely for DH. He loves it, BOTH SIDES of it, and especially the little "I love you" label on the back. (ASL was his first language so it seemed appropriate to me.) |

Scrap tote is overflowing!! wanted quick projects so I made placemats and tablerunners with 2.4x4.5's here is some of the placemats..

Oh these are all so beautiful! My mom does scrap quilting. I'll try to post some of hers soon.

jw3280, how did you finish your placemats? It looks like there is no binding. We've been eating on bamboo placemats but I could certainly make up some placemats -- maybe even with a seasonal theme -- and they could certainly go in the wash when the inevitable spill happens ...
