    I think this would be a great design for Christmas -- go for it! You could use white, red or green background, and then various bright Christmas prints for the rectangles. They go together quite quickly.

    Lovely placemats. I love the colors and placement of the various length pieces. But I especially noticed your machine binding. I am still working on getting that to work out for me. Practice, practice

    I think they turned out great and once you get the hang of machine sewing binding, you may never go back except possibly for show quilts!

    Very nice! And the quilting really reflects the back fabric...these are really reversible, in my opinion! Love them!
