Combining Quilting & Embroidery

Placemats to embroider!

There have been lots of requests for these placemats, and we have twelve colors to choose from! Just think of what you can do with these! You can use them unadorned, and embroider them when you have some free time. You can make a set for yourself, and your best friend at the same time. You can turn them into book covers, cake or bread baskets, tote bags or make-up bags — the possibilities are endless! See the close-up pictures below to appreciate the quality and the color choices!

To place your order for these placemats, hurry over to the Embroidery Store and check out our new section for embroidery blanks!

The design that is embroidered on the peach placemat above is from A Design by Lyn and is called One by One. Thank you, Lyn!

This placemat features an adorable butterfly from Designs Sew Fine and is part of the Butterflies II collection.  A contrasting fabric was added to the edge of the placemat, and finished just like a small quilt. This is a great idea! You can make napkins to coordinate with your binding!

Robin,

These are just lovely! Thanks for being so responsive to our requests for them.

Can I ask what kind of orange that is? In other words, is it a peachy orange (which I think of as kind of pale) or is it brighter. Overall the colours look bright, but I you know how I love screaming orange (grin)

These are a slightly dusty, mellow shade of peach — not as bright as the yellow and green — more of a pastel. Maybe cantaloupe would be a good word…..

Robin I thought of Spring and Easter while viewing the placemats, and cantaloupe would be the perfect discription for the peach colored placemat. Using one of each color for the Easter table would be fun with colored eggs etc.

If anyone is interested in the patterns on DesignsSewFine, they should act right away. She has them on sale and has some very nice ones that don’t have any jump stitches! It’s so fun to see you share your websites!!!
