Reversible Halloween/Thanksgiving Quilted Placemat – Step 1

Start by cutting two 12 1/2″ X 11″ from autumn fabric and cut another four 4″ X 12 1/2″ of your other autumn fabric. Then you are going to place the 2 of the 4″X 12 1/2″ pieces of fabric pretty sides down onto ONE of the 12 1/2″ X 11″ autumn fabric, as shown in the photo, one on each side.  Pin and stitch.

After that you are going to place one of the quilt battings on a flat surface.  Place one of the Halloween place mat pieces on top of the quilt batting.  The Halloween place mat will be PRETTY SIDE UP. Place one of the Thanksgiving place mats on top of the Halloween one with PRETTY SIDE DOWN. Pin around the place mat leaving an opening for turning. Then stitch around the placemat pressure foot edge. Clip corners and trim your seams making sure not to cut into your seam. Next turn your placemat right sides out and hand sew the opening you left closed.
