I began this challenge without a specific plan. I went to the stash shelves and pulled out a pretty print, not alot of it so I thought to use it up and pull some fabrics that compliment. Due to indoor lighting, it may look a tad harsh with the burgandy and bronze metallic.
So I made 4 placemats 14 x 19 ( one is hanging on design wall). See next months' challenge fabric peeking in the upper right corner.
I like to do alot of quilting these days, so I did orange peels in the printed squares and some geometric designs in the open areas.
This is January's version of the Table Scraps Challenge instigated by The Joyful Quilter. Be sure to visit there to see what all the quilters are linking up with their projects this month.
Thanks so much for stopping by.
