Blogtober #30 ~ Festive season started...


There is already talk about Secret Santa's and Christmas outfits which made me think of my large stash of Christmas Fabric.

After looking at the mountain of Yule inspired cotton I decided to do a bit of sewing and make 6 quilted place mats. I used my quilting guide to help keep my lines straight then decided it was lunch time. Please pretend my humble chicken loaf sandwich is a more elaborate Christmas feast :)

6 Place mats made, 2 Secret Santa's and a Christmas outfit (or 2) to go...

Tomorrow is the last day of Blogtober :(

  2. You had a really busy day! 6 quilted place mats by lunch time is a really good result! I love the Christmas fabric! I have a few Charismas themed gifts made but I am far from done:(

  3. My day was not as productive as it sounds. The cutting and sewing took a week in between other jobs. I just finished the quilting today in time for lunch :)

  5. I can't believe there is talk of Christmas already... but I guess it will be here before we know it.

    Christmas placemats are a great idea and I love that they are quilted.
