I used a little LED light to light the inside, and a flash on low power to light the outside. I think the focal plane in this image is really interesting too.
For Smile on Saturday theme "Mad About Mats".
I liked how the sunlight passing thru this glass dispersed itself on the placemat, while the straw remained a solid shadow.

A quiet but productive day around the house today, managed to get a closet cleaned up and the laundry caught up.
Otherwise the majority of the to-do list sat on the sidelines while I made up new things to tackle around the house.
All in all, not a bad Sunday.
Hope everyone has had a good day.

...woven using recycled cloth for the interior. The weaving structure is called "rep" and is widely used to make anything from larger rugs to small coasters. A cheap and environmentally friendly way to re-use/recycle old material. Washable and very durable .. here the interior was part of an old bedsheet! I love these placemats - they are large, sturdy and very colourful too!

These are constructed similarly to the coasters. Staggering the fabric blocks was a very smart move - accuracy wasn't my strong suit with these.
I LOVE it - thank you Stephanie!!!!!! Have just finished doing a little dance long enough to take a pic.
She also sent some lovely fabric but i forgot to take a pic of that as i was too busy dancing!
All is good wih the world today :-)
This is the front of the one I sent to Julie, jgmehlin. Liberated crosses with Fassetts and black/white fabrics. Organic horizontal quilting. Scrappy binding.
Four place mats I made for my sister. Fall print fabric fat quarters from Dollar Tree with appliqued leaf and freehand machine quilting. Nov. 2025
Crazy Tuesday: Reflections
I folded a plastic silver placemat with a cut-out design around a small round mirror (bottom half of photo). WIndow light came through the cut-outs and created this effect. This is a colour photo.
my kitchen is full of crazy awesomeness!
Barb (quilting barbie) totally went above and beyond and made me everything I could hope for! "I Spy" placemats for the girls and green ones for my husband and I, 2 hotpads, and 5 amazing little magnets PLUS some extra fabric of some of my favorites! Barb I love ya! :)

It's not hard to get revved up for this milestone.
Made by me.
This is the back of the placemat I made and sent to Julie, jgmehlin. Funky birds to liven up the back, organic quilting, removable leaves/label attached with snaps. Shot cotton background, appliqued birds. HST border on 2 sides. I'm very pleased with how it came out, but need to relax more when doing "liberated". I'm too persnickety I guess and I like order! lol
Just noticed- the color is pretty washed out on this- the greens are much brighter.
The birds were inspired by the work of mrsmoen. mrsmoenpatterns.blogspot.com/2010/02/funky-fowl-pattern.html
Sing a song of sixpence.. Here is the placemat that I made for Lucinda. I can post now that I know she has received it. The circle was made with a circular foot attachment that fixes to my machine. I programmed the words in and did the inner decorative stitching..as in blackbirds ; )
the most adorable placemat arrived on my doorstep!! yeah!! i LOVE it!! THANKS, amy!!

Today I'm finishing 10 placemats. These are so much fun to make using 'found' scraps in the bin. Busy inside while it rains outside. #cy365#captureyour365#whereistandtoday#ourwisproject#placematsbyo#placematart#fiberart
Partner - I hope you like and can use these placemats. I was thinking of keeping them for myself! ;)
Do you know who the illustrator of this is? Please tell me!
