I still have one or two bits that need homes, but that will come.*
I'll have a full table on Saturday, with eight of us eating. Hmmmm, I only have sets of six place mats, except for Christmas stuff, and I'm not going there just yet. So this afternoon I set to and made some. I used only fabrics which mum gave to me. Do you remember when she brought round that huge bag of curtain samples? Here's a sample of the backs.
And the fronts. Even the bindings are made from sample fabric.
They are made from the backs of the samples which I removed! I used off cuts of batting for the middles. It looks like I have my next couple of evenings all sewn up closing these bindings.I plan to make some cushion covers tomorrow. Just wait til you see why.

Just hope nobody drops food on them, they are gorgeous
I love it when you can make such lovely items out of re-cycled material.
Your placemats look really great. That's what I have been working on but mine are Christmas gifts.
i agree...those are so pretty, id be afraid to eat on them :) the back is just as pretty as the front too!
