This morning I set out to complete a sewing project that I have been wanting to do for weeks - placemats! I cut out 6 27x37 cm rectangles of the tomato fabric ($9/m) and the same of the red cotton backing material ($3/m). I couldn't believe how fast they were to make, less than 2 hours, and that is including photographing! If anyone is interested I could make up a tutorial, but they are so simple even the newest of sewers could manage.

Perfect size for the dinner plates |
So there you have it! I can't wait to make more of these: so easy & affordable. I should make a new set every month!
I love them! I need something like that on my table. The bright red is gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteThanks Zoe! I love them too, the fabric cost me a fortune but its so worth it :)
