I quilted these place mats using a disappearing 9 patch that has been window paned. I followed this video. By all means, they are not perfect, but I'm really happy that I learned a lot about my sewing machine as I completely made this by machine; I even machine quilted them.
They were VERY easy to make since most of the squares came straight from this charm pack. FYI - a charm pack is precut squares of fabric. I did have to add a few squares of a different fabric and the black to make these this size and to have 5 of them for our family. I didn't take a picture of the back, but I used a mostly black fabric with dancing skeletons for the baking. Now, I am looking for an awesome Christmas themed charm pack!
These are so much fun for October!! They turned out great!!
