| Farmer's Market Blooms - 10" squares |
I decided to make some placemats with this bundle of fabrics. I got my inspiration for the design of these placemats from the Checkerboard print from this bundle. With that print in mind, I designed a block and then added some strips to either side to make it a placemat! These are quite easy to put together and they will definitely brighten up your table!
I had so much fun making these cute placemats! I hope you will too! Let's get started!
Supplies (for 2 placemats)
Cutting:
- 4 - 3" x 3" squares (A)
- 10 - 3" x 3" squares (B) *cut in half diagonally
- 4 - 4" x 4" squares (C)
- 2 - 4" x 11" rectangles (D)
Assembly:
Start with an (A) square and take two (B) triangles. Sew a triangle onto the top and bottom of your square. Your (B) triangles will over go over the sides of your (A) square. Do not trim fabric that hangs over! Press.
Now take two more (B) triangles and sew them on to the left and right sides. Press, and trim your block to a 4" square. Make 5 blocks.
Now take your blocks and your (C) squares and lay them out in a 9-patch. Sew them into rows of three and press. Then sew your rows together and press. Block will be 11" x 11"
Now add your (D) strips to the left and right side. Press.
Now you are ready to quilt and bind! :)
Now that we shared our fabric for the week, we want to see yours!
Here is your chance to link up anything to do with fabric! You can link up finished quilts, a work in progress, a new fabric you just bought, a project made with fabric, or maybe you just want to show off some of your stash. Anything goes--as long as it has to do with fabric!

Love those fabrics! Have to check it out. Thanks for this tutorial.
I love the fabric packs you put together - you have a good eye!
Love this bundle, went to check it out. Did miss it or do you not have a wish list available. I don't have the finances right now but would like to get it later. Thanks
Your placemats are beautiful!
Those fabrics are lovely. I especially like that they come from several different fabric lines. It's like getting a taste of six different ice creams! What's not to love about that?
Great idea adding the borders to a block for placemats. Black and white goes with anything, especially red. Lovely bundle!
@allthingzsewn - the bundle is still available, but is close to being sold out. The link above is working. :) If you can't seem to get there via the link, you can go to our website (www.fortworthfabricstudio.com) and search for "Farmer's Market Blooms" :) Once the bundle is sold out, it will no longer show up - but it's still there for now! :)
