CREATING A PLACEMAT
STEP J
Using a matching thread, stitch in the ditch between
each block to hold the layers together.
STEP K
Next, we will bind the outside of our placemat. Start
by cutting a 64" x 2 1/2" strip of binding.
STEP L
You may need to cut individual strips first in
order to get the desired length. If so, place strips
perpendicular prior to attaching as shown. Sew
diagonally, corner to corner to joing the strips. Trim
leaving 1/2” seam allowance.

vertically and horizontally when
attaching the blocks.
