Disappearing ‘Flowers’ Placemats

Finally completed the matching placemats for my Disappearing ‘Flowers’ Table Runner. This time the nine patch is looking more ‘disappearing’. I placed the dark fabric where I’d be cutting into, so it ended up with smaller squares, hence the dark fabric is less overbearing. Looks much better .Smile

There are so many more gorgeous block to make!  I’m just into applique right now!

  1. Your placemats are gorgeous! I wouldn't dare put them on my table - two little boys and those would not mix very well!
    I have that magazine too and I am dying to make some of the blocks in it!
