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!
