Farmer's Market Placemats x 4

Gotta baste, quilt and bind the last two placemats in time to launder and starch them all for a June 1 deadline.  That's when my friend moves into her very first apartment - these will be a housewarming gift. 

I debated about making napkins to match, using the (non-fruit/veggie) geometric prints.  I keep hoping to find one geometric pattern (gingham perhaps?) that comes in all six colors...but that's probably too much to ask.  Shopped today, hoping to find some cloth napkins I could purchase instead, but struck out. 

On now, to oranges and blueberries!  :)

Jeans Quilt Auditions

All my past jeans quilts were cut using a 6 1/2" square.  I had about 20 squares left over from previous quilts - so when I got down to cutting up jeans, I decided to cut some rectangles.  I scrapped the idea of making a rag-style jeans quilt.  I don't want to deal with all that bulk.  I'll do that with cotton at some time in the future.  This project will likely evolve, but I have decided one thing for sure:  I'm going to make this one up as I go!  :)
