I got a new book on quilting the other day “Quilting Modern: Techniques and projects for improvisational quilts”, and there was a cushion design that I decided would work great for place mats. As Christmas is around the corner, I started the place mats today hoping to get them done so I could cross a present off the list.

My fabric choices for the place mats, the purples being the binding and the backing of the place mats.

First pieces sewn together:

Finished front piece of place mat:

I will post the completed place mats soon.
