Mel's Mats in Hazelwood
The last post featured Mel's Mats made with scraps. Today I am going to share some placemats made with a precut strip pack by one of our favorite sewists, Juli Kieny! We paired a jelly roll of an adorable fabric line from One Canoe Two (one of my favorite designers!) with two woven solids for the background. Juli made up 4 placemats and we love how they turned out!
Juli had a ton of fun playing with the decorative stitches on her machine! I love the alternating sized circles, assorted stars, swirling waves and triangles! The green and blue backgrounds play nicely with the red, pink, blue and white prints from the fabric line.
