I neglected to mention that I finally finished making the cafe curtains for the kitchen in July. They were a bit of a nuisance to make as I had to piece together the curtain fabric because it wasn't wide enough to fit the window.
As Christmas is coming way to soon, I finally finished making the double-sided placemats for the kitchen. The reverse side of the mats are the same yellow cupcake pattern found on the curtains. The actual mats were easy enough to pull together. It was the binding that was a nuisance to create and sew! Next time(??!), I'll use a wider binding!
The pink, yellow and turquoise patterns are all Robert Kaufman Fabric from the Sweet Tooth Collection and named Camellia Cupcakes. N loves the fabric and keeps commenting that she could just eat our curtains! Considering I ad libbed the curtains and the placemats, I am pleased enough with their outcomes!
Wow! The kitchen looks wonderful.
ReplyDeleteOf course I love the pink mat! Yes, I agree with peppermintpatcher... the kitchen looks great!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteSooo SWEET! I love the cupcakes fabric for the placemats and the cafe curtain is a nice option for the window. You kitchen looks so smart, MJ--something right out of a magazine! :o) Happy Week ((HUGS))
ReplyDeleteWe have such great taste -- both have white cabinets, black countertops, and subway tile backsplashes (although yours look fancier than our plain white tiles)!!
