.... You come over and ask your friends at M*QC forum!
I purchased French Roosters when it was on clearance at Craftsy to make my mom some Dresden placemats. I want to make the mats reversible. I can not figure out how I want to make them. Part of me feels like they should be similar, the other part of me thinks they should be identical.
Anyway.... These are some of the different designs I've come up with. No matter what I go with, the mat will be circular so don't pay attention to the square mats. On one side of all four mats there'll be that rooster, and then on the reverse side of all four there will be chickens. I will be binding this with the chicken wire fabric, and I have one yard of that available.
Anything else that I haven't thought of?
1) This would be the front on the left, and back on the right. I know my mom likes the scrappy look of the double Dresden on the left. I have enough fabric to make the 9 patches identical.

2) This is another option for the front on the left, and back on the right. I only have enough fabric on the right to make two placemats the same, but will have the same colors available in different print to have the other two identical.

3) This one would be one side of the mat. I would just need to decide if I wanted to make a chicken wire Dresden, or go with the circle.

4) This would be the reverse side to the mat in #3. Same thing as #2.... 2 would be identical, other two in same colorway.

And please let me know if I need to clarify anything!
Thanks for any input!
