Festive Charm Place Mats and Table Runner

Festive Charm Place Mats and Table Runner

This is another project I made to donate.  I purchased a number of table place mat with table runner patterns and several jelly roll packs.  I chose the Festive Charm pack for this set given that the charity fund raiser occurs just before Christmas.  While I had purchased two of the jelly roll packs as recommended in the pattern, it turned out that these jelly rolls didn't have the required number of different colours in them.  I had to add some fabric from my own stash, however I don't have the same style of fabric.  In the end it still looks nice!

The first step was to get the strips in a nice order.  For this I had to have help.  I don't have pictures of all the process, but it was a lot of detail cutting and sewing.

Here is the finished place mat.  Getting the diamonds to line up was tricky!

I had enough material to make six place mats and the table runner.

This is the table runner.

This is the whole set.  Hope it gets put to good use!
