I liked how the sunlight passing thru this glass dispersed itself on the placemat, while the straw remained a solid shadow.
...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.

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 :-)
Canada's sesquicentennial on July 1, 2017
It's not hard to get revved up for this milestone.
Made by me.
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! :)
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 ; )
Partner - I hope you like and can use these placemats. I was thinking of keeping them for myself! ;)
