Placemats

Last week I blogged about the 
Box of Shame I found in my Hidey Hole closet.
In this box were some placemats I had started years ago for my sister.
She had seen some when she had been on vacation
and had described them to me.
"I can make those!"

Well.....
fast forward a few years
and here they sit.
They were going to have scalloped edges
or pointed edges... I don't even remember.
Nevertheless, they were going to require some work.
 When I found them the other day,
I decided to just finish them
and finished they are. 



They had been sewn together already and were ready
for the fancy edges.  
I thought about practicing some FMQ designs
on them, but in the end just used my 
walking foot with the #4 stitch on my Bernina.




These will go to my sister.
I'm sure she had long forgotten about the ones
she had seen, so these will be fine with her.
:D

 

Eight placemats finished and 
out of the box!

Happy Quilting!
