Let the games begin!

In honor of the London Olympics beginning later this month the July small project of the month at the shop where I work is these Union Jack placemats. I used one block from the Victory Garden pattern by Busy Bee Quilt Designs to make one placemat. They came out a smidge bigger than a normal placemat and measure 15″ x 20″. I’ve had this pattern for a couple of years but seem to always have WAY too many projects to start yet another quilt. So I was glad that I could sort of try it out on a couple of placemats without committing to a whole quilt. They were definitely easy… and fun to make to boot.

So cute! Great choice of fabrics!
I just bought this quilt pattern and I am so excited to make it, now maybe I will get started by making a couple of placemats! Love your fabric combination! Thank you for the inspiration!!
These look fantastic! I’m inspired now to finish the Union Jack Pillow I started at the Fat Quarterly Retreat…. thanks

This pattern looks wonderful! I love how you made placemats from the blocks! Beautiful!
