This project was made as part of a Craftsy course:
Craftsy Block of the Month 2012 »

Instructions

The placemats were easy to construct after doing the scrappy quilt. The process is the same and I was very please with the result. The Christmas stocking is also made with the same process. You can do any shape provided you follow the method shown by Amy Gibson

Difficulty:

Category: Quilting

Type of item: Functional

For: Home

Materials

Using the scrappy method taught in class I made placemats, I also made a Christmas stocking using the same method

What was your inspiration?

Amy Gibson inspired me to try other things using the same methods of patchwork that was used for the block of the month

What are you most proud of?

They turned out really good

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

I would use wider strips next time

The placemats are beautiful. Thank you for showing me this and it looks like I'll be making quite a few of these for our table and other family members as well as the stockings. Thank you once again.

I made Christmas stockings for my three sons years ago using a strip method. Yours look great. Love the placemats too, lovely colors, thanks for the inspiration.
