A Pretty Little Table Mat for the Holidays
It’s Lovely in Other Colors, as Well!
Simple piecing in beautiful colors becomes a sweet little table mat in hardly any time at all. Use pre-cut 2 1/2″ charms or cut your own from a 5″ charm pack.
The hand embroidery is so pretty and adds a lovely nostalgic touch. However, machine embroidery will give you a quicker finish. Or, look for a thin strip from a border print or even use a subtle print in that section if you prefer.
This little quilt can be enlarged by using 5″ charm squares instead of the specified 2 1/2″ mini charms. Adjust the white sashing pieces (and embroidery) to fit.
The finished size, as designed by Jen Daly, its 14″ x 14″. It will make a lovely pillow top, too.
The fabric she used, Petites Maisons de Noël by French General for Moda, is available as mini charm packs here, or in other pre-cuts and yardage here (while supplies last).
