A big thank you to myflotex for talking me through the stippling! I have learned so much from creating this stipple design! & Thanks to her I have learned how to make it the right size! So many ideas running through my head with this! Another UFO finished!

I started these placemats when our oldest was a family of 4 then Miss Ava came along & that made 5 so I took the side remnents & made a smaller placemat for her & now they are a family of SIX! So that was over 6 years ago when I started the tops of these LOL My stippling by hand needs great improvement lol but my mitered corners are spot on.

I have a Debbie Kratovil project that I don't think will ever get done. Her instructions were incomplete & it was for A New York beauty paper piecing project? We have emailed her & she doesn't respond? So it will sit But I am happy to have started & made this dent so far!~hugs~

Just an fyi here when I did the first couple of placemats they took about an hour to stipple quilt them I believe I had to hoop 4 times After getting help from Muflotex I was able to quilt one in about 10 minutes! Kind of puts things into proper perspective which might help explain my enthusiasm. Hugs & ** 4 ALL

Maybe one of our Cuties still has a small amount of this fabric that they would be willing to part with. Hoping so anyway. Wish I had it to send. Very nice job on the place mats and I too love it when the switch finally turns on and I again understand a concept I have been struggling with. Hope you and all cuties can be checking off our UFO piles, especially when they also can be Christmas gifts! Great Job!

I agree 100% & thank you very much. It would indeed be lovely if a cutie had a spare bit of this but not holding out much hope since it is older bits, but a nice idea just the same. ~hugs~
