May Day Placemats

I love May.
Most likely because its my birthday month,
but its also almost summer (although today its almost winter).
The flowers are blooming and gardens are being planted.

Inspired by spring last week, I finished making some placemats for ME.
I made two of each.



I can't believe I still had fabric left over from this and this.
Even after making everything, I still have a decent amount left.


I am still working on photographing better.
I think I found my favorite spot at home to take the pictures.
The sun's good. But its outside, which means no pictures on rainy or snowy days.


This week I have been trying to figure out flickr.
I consider myself a somewhat tech savvy person.
But flickr is giving me a run for my money.
There are so many other blogs out there that have cute pictures and collages linked to flickr.
Do I have to upgrade for that fun stuff?
Oh well, I should be able to figure it out soon enough.

Well I think I may actually try to quilt one of the quilt tops I have had done for a while.

(PS - Thank you blogger for making me realize how addicted I am to reading blogs.
It only took two days of denying me that fun for me to admit it :) )

  1. So beautiful! I love the fabric that you used (the one I'm looking at in particular is multicolored, not-quite-dots). Nice!! I just got on Flickr recently too, I have the free account which is PLENTY of uploads for me per month!

  2. Great placemats! Perfect for almost summer/almost winter time. : ) (And believe me, I know how that goes).

    Try a free account with Flickr for now, that will probably be enough for you. (The "pro" paid account really just offers more uploads per month.) My blog and Flickr accounts are not connected, but I know you CAN do that. I just haven't taken the time to figure it out. I post my pictures separately in both places. Good luck!
