After finishing the pinwheel block, I am feeling more like I actually want to go sew. (yay!) I still have one more bee block for this month plus my mom's seriously-overdue birthday gift to finish, but after that I want to make something for my home. Sara just posted some gorgeous place mats that she made using this pattern from fabric designer Amanda Murphy. {photo from SewSweetness}
I have a beautiful stack of Parisville fabrics that I have been trying to decide what to do with, and I think the place mat project will be perfect. I love table linens, but our little Ikea table is too small to accommodate 4 standard place mats. These should be perfect!
Wow Kelly, thanks so much ::blush:: I bet your Parisville fabrics would make great placemats. I can't wait to see how you combine them! The placemats are pretty smallish, so I bet they'd be perfect for your table!
ReplyDeleteawesome! very original and you have some great fabrics to use. Yes, I look forward to the lunch bag whenever it gets here.
