Tossed Salad Placemats

[mcs80013]

I haven't posted much because I am making Christmas gifts. Someone donated this tossed salad fabric to me but there wasn't enough to do 4 placemats (only two). So I made the rectangles and then cut them on a 45 degree angle. The coordinating fabric was also given to me and there was plenty of that. I quilted using a brown thread to offset the brightness of the coordinating fabric and then purchased some mottled brown for the binding. Check these out - they are so stinkin' cute.

P.S. The other two are being finished right now.

I am not a yellow fan but these are gorgeous. The black binding sets them off wonderfully an the simple quilting is perfect. Way to go!

Those are cute and cheerful! I love how you quilted them too. How very creative (naturally for a quilter ) to divide the fabric up the way you did.
