I finished my fall placemats and it’s still fall! I wanted placemats that went with my wall hanging and table runner, but I also wanted them to be a little different. The patterns are from all over. The flowers and the squirrel are from the same book I used for the table runner, The Quilter’s Home Fall by Lois Krushina Fletcher. I drew the pumpkins freehand and found the birds, cat and scarecrow online. For the tree and leaves I used a design by Heather Hale. I guess I just did a little of this and a little of that – just doin’ my own thing, as usual. The finished placemats measure 15″ x 21″.
I would love to start on a winter set; wall hanging, table runner, and placemats, but I’m not sure I will have time. I’ve got to get busy on making my Christmas gifts. Happy Sewing & Quilting. Kathryn
