I Spy Placemats

Here is another project out of 4 X 4 squares.
You will need 12 squares for each placemat.
I used a heavy pellon for the center (white layer in the pic).
Backing fabric, I also made the binding from that.
I made 1/4 inch seams so my binding was cut at 2 1/2 inches and pressed in half.

Press the top and pin it all together.
I just pinned the corners.
Sew the binding on the top.
I folded the corners into 45 degree angles.
Pin the binding in place.
I hand bound mine.
One finished placemat.


Thanks for Buzzing by,
