Whew!
I had enough snowman/penguin to re-cut for place mats. I decided just on a 'wholecloth' type front with the red polka dots as the back. I've been wanting to try facing a quilt since I saw examples of 'facing' last spring (spring 2024!)
pattern: wholecloth cut at 19 x 13 and cut to 18.5 x 12.5 after quilted
quilting: wavy lines on Baby Brother
'facing': one tutorial here.
note to self: I cut my facing at 2.0 inches, pressed then cut 2 at 12.5 inches
and 2 at 18.0 inches. I places the sides first ans top/bottom
second before sewing at 1/4 inch from edge.
I'm going to take Baby Brother into the spa. She's having some tension issues.
My other finish is that I completed the quilting on a Casual Quilters' QOV.
bricks are cut 3.5 in x 6.5 inches with every other row has 1/2 bricks
on the ends.
panto: serpentine
Sharing today with Alycia at Finish or NOT Friday.

That is a cute print for placemats! (Of course, I love the skating penguins!) The brick quilt is a neat one - pretty quick to sew up once the bricks are cut, I bet.
Hooray for the set of placemats! Nice design for the QOV.
Nice job on the group of place mats! The quilt is very pretty!
That is a cute print for the placemats and a nice QOV too! Well done!!!
