I am happy to report, that after several evenings of work

I got all 10 placemats bound and finished. There are only five here, because that’s all the fits on our dining room table, but we have another folding table we will put up for Christmas dinner to accommodate all our guests.
I got a couple black tablecloths to cover both tables. I know black isn’t really a traditional Christmas colour, but I think it looks really nice with placemats
Here’s a closer look at them.


There are five of each design, and I love them both! Hopefully they will be used at Christmas for many years to come.
Valerie, I love them! They look great with the black tablecloth. It makes the colors stand out just as they should. What a fantastic job you did on them and they’re so cute. As I said before, I love them. 🙂
Blessings and hugs,
Betsy

Good job, you! I was just watching a tutorial on how to make placemats that make their own binding but it made my eyes cross. I could never figure that out. Too much folding, measuring and cutting for me.
