Having been inspired by fellow MQG Member, Amy and Cherry House Quilts, I decided that I would make some placemats for me and my two flatmates in Scotland. I'm pretty sure we have a dining room table in our new flat.
I wrote out my game plan:
...and got to work!
I chose grey and leaf green (after quizzing Marie & Eva on their favorite colors)-
The placemats were easy to assemble:
I can't believe I took the time to press all my seams open - a first for me!
I finished all six placemats after I moved back home to my parents - here they are on their dining room table:
The quilting was done in straight lines and I did the backing/binding in the same grey color:
I'll be able to unpack them in Scotland on Tuesday! 
They came out beautifully!! Have a safe flight to Scotland!!
