Look what I made! Tomato Fabric Place Mats

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.

The finished product(s)!

Looking great on my kitchen table (Once my grandmother's)

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!
