I used a jelly roll of Garland by Cotton and Steel to make these placemats.
I selected 4 strips and stitched them together into a strip set.
Then I took a 60 degree triangle ruler and cut wedges from the strip set. You get enough wedges from one strip set to make a placemat. (6)
I love how they all turned out so differently. I made six! I had used some of the strips to make the tree cushion covers that I made this Christmas. The size of the placemats is perfect. I like them so much that I am going to make another set of six for our ever growing family.
We had such a lovely snow event a couple of days ago. It is like a winter wonderland here in our neck of the woods!
Thank you for stopping by and I wish you all a Happy New Year filled with blessings of health and happiness. Lots of sewing time too of course!
Love
Chantal
