WIPS Wednesday...

Just one project to share today.....

(because there hasn't been much progress on anything 

else!)


I decided it was time to make use of this pretty, little 

stack of fabric!



Add some linen and green stripes for binding,



I'm making some placemats.....




inspired by a tutorial here.

I'm off to find some backing in my stash!

What work do you have 'in progress' today?

Happy sewing....


As its Wednesday, I'm linking up here...

That fabric is so pretty. I love the summery colours and look forward to seeing the completed placemats.
I have the rest of the week off work and plan to finish a cushion which I'm in the process of quilting.

Oooh, very nice! I have that very same little pack. How far does one pack go? 4 placemats or just two?

Happy Placemats really make meals nicer. Will you make napkins to match?

When my kids can be trusted to keep their food on the plate, I may consider making placements, until then, I'm keeping the fabric safe!

These look lovely - are you using one of the mini charm packs Susan?

Oh, I sure need to make some place mats too! Thanks for the link. I like the MCMBee block you made for Carla. I hope to get to my sewing room next week and make a couple for her myself.

Now these are VERY cute. I love that you have those sweet flowery pins in the first photo, too--it just speaks of lovely sunny days to go with your lovely sunny placemats (although you are headed into fall where you are, right?)
