Wow! When I was moaning about my decision to make placemats, and how much time it takes to finish the binding on them, several of my readers suggested that I machine stiitch the binding down with invisible thread. Can't say enough good things about this stuff. Of course, I wouldn't use it for a special quilt, but for placemats and quick little gifts, this stuff is awesome! The only problem I had was that somehow my machine (a Janome 4623) overwound a bobbin, and it actually lifted the top of the bobbin off!
And I just had to add this picture of the snowman my daughter and grandson made last week. We finally got some snow. I hope we get more!
Those turned out so cute and look so pretty on your table. I always use quilted placemats at my house. Love them! We are quilters so we need to surround ourselves with what we love. Nice job...love the way you quilted them too.
