I picked up a panel from one of the online live sales I follow though I no longer remember which shop nor who printed the panel.

I’m getting ready to free motion quilt a several quilts and these were perfect for getting some practice and checking to be sure the machine settings were all good. Curves in free motion are often tricky (they tend to “eyelash” if the tension isn’t perfect, but things this time look really good.

I hunted through my stash to come up with backing fabrics for these mats and found this great cupcake birthday fabric. So these place mats are reversible and are double duty. That’s a win-win!
