Veranda Romatic Placemats


Another quick finish!
Same fabric and pattern inspiration as for the table cloth, but placemats this time. The solid piece on the side is 5,5 inches wide.
They will be a wedding present.

Next goal is to finish the bear quilt. I will probably also start a throw from a Violetta Garden kit from The Violet Patch.

Have a wonderful springtime!

Romantic Table Cloth

I must be the only one in my engineering company that has a table cloth in the office. But now it was time with a new one, and here is the result.

The cloth is inspired by a pattern in the norwegian quilt book by Tove Fevang; "Lappeteknikk - slik gjør du det!"

Some of the fabric is called Northcott Veranda and are purchased from Quiltestua, the rest is from my stash box. This is a great project to use your jelly-roll too, the thimbles are 2,5 inches high!

Four Thimble Placemats

The basic pattern is from the book "Lappeteknikk slik gjør du det" by Tove Fevang. This is my second project based on this book, the other one was a log-cabin.
The fabric was purchased at Larvik Kommune Gavekroken.
The wine glass in the picture is made by a local supplier "Kongsberg Glassblåseri"
I will give the placemats as a lottery price to "Jondalen Sanitetsforening".

I am thinking of another design for these placemats, where I will replace the green thimbles with christmas greens (trees), and the other thimbels in christmas reds. Binding should be green. Quilting with gold thread. - If I get time, too many projects right now. It's time to start making christmas presents!
