Fall Time Applique Place mats




I created these four place mats just using some left over fabrics I had; such as the rayon cotton plaid fabric it was perfect for the back round, some wonderful scraps of fall time farming fabric and a nice thick cotton fabric for backing.
Each place mat has a bit of a different scene on it, and I whack out the scenes and sewed them on using my sewing machine.
These were pretty simple and fun to make and I just love whacking fabric out and finding out what one can come up with, I did not use any batting just because the backing was nice and heavy and it seemed like these just did not need the centering. I plan to add them to my art fire store at http://49stocker.artfire.com
So I hope you will come visit and find other wonderful items in my store.
