YELLOW!!! Here is my Final Count of Yellow Placemats - for my RSC and Placemat Project
The top 6 are not quilted yet, but!! I have the backing prepared for my next QOV and I added extra to it - so they will be quilted soon!!! The Bottom Three are quilted... and of course, need binding. But I found a cool little yellow stripe in my stash - that I really think wants to be the binding....
A better photo of the 6 pieced ones
and a recap of the quilted ones
I did not Make these Blocks - they came from another person - and that full story is here:
Yellow Statistics . I thought they would be a perfect way to participate in the Rainbow Scrap Challenge and Joyfuls Table Scraps Challenge and!! Give a little something back to my community.
oh!! and you know - to make it about me... cuz really.... practice some fun quilting motifs ... I mean! If I don't t like them I don't have to take a photo, and I can give them away and we will NEVER know they existed - haha!!
So sweet that those orphan blocks found a pretty home! Love all the yellow goodness. Your quilting is superb.
ReplyDeleteVery sunny place mats. They will definitely be enjoyed and appreciated. I really like that feathered quilting on the second quilted placemat.
ReplyDeleteHi again! Love these and the whole concept behind them. I have wanted to volunteer for our local Meals on Wheels and had contacted them just before the pandemic shut everything down. Had I been thinking (!!), I could have used the last year to make oodles of placemats just for them. But it's never too late to make a difference and give a piece of yourself. {{Hugs}} Great job. ~smile~ Roseanne
ReplyDeleteTable scraps that are yummier than a feast...must be Alycia :-) Hope your weekend is warm and sunny.
ReplyDeleteLove, love, LOVE the way you combine the RSC and the Table Scraps Challenge to come up with a wonderful community service project, Alycia!! Bonus points for have a bit of fun with the quilting. :o))
ReplyDeleteI still haven't finished my RSC blocks for the month. I guess I'll finish them in March. Glad you are keeping up.

Your placemats look so cheery!!! These are going to brighten up someone’s day!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great project! Happy yellow and butterscotch placemats!
ReplyDeleteI love the idea of practicing quilting on these table placemats. Great job using up some yellow.
ReplyDeletePerfect use for those orphan blocks, Alycia! Love your placemats in yellow!
ReplyDeleteYou are too funny! That's why I haven't taken photos of each of the T-shirt blocks I am quilting! LOL! Great job on the scraps!
ReplyDeleteThese placemats will add a little bit of sunshine to every meal.
ReplyDeleteVery fancy quilting - good for you for adding that extra flourish!
ReplyDeleteGood use of those orphan blocks. Love the quilting.
ReplyDeleteA little citrus, a little pineapple, some butterscotch. Somebody is going to gain weight just looking at those little bits and pieces of 'goodness'. I too like that second with the 'butterfly-ish' swirls.
ReplyDeleteGood job.
Who wouldn't enjoy a meal on these cheerful placemats!!?!?!?
ReplyDeleteWay to go! You made great use of orphan blocks AND got to try out some quilting motifs. That's a win-win in my book!
ReplyDeleteSo many fun quilting patterns! Now on to the binding.
ReplyDeleteLovely placemats! Yellow is such a joyful color ;)
ReplyDeleteOoh, la la! The quilting is really quite beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThese are so much fun , Alycia. You always have so much quilty goodness going on here.
