We caught up with my brother and SIL when we’re in Melbourne a while back. They saw me using my zippered placemats. I thought I would surprise them and make some for them. I know they love bright colours so the hard part was choosing some fabric.
I had these mitred corners left over from a quilt I did at Judy’s of Cornerstone Creations. They were bright and perfect.
Then for my brothers I did rainbow stripes and caravans. They are always away in their van travelling all over.
And the backs were just as bright.
When they received their parcel they sent a message to say they loved them…
Happy days.

They are very bright and happy. The two zippy mats you gave to Tony and I are well used.
They are lovely and cheerful - great gift. xx
Clever to have the zipped compartment for cutlery.
Both look great and will be well used by your Bro and SIL..
These are great Jo! Wonderful fabrics.
It’s always nice when you can make a gift that is appreciated. They are such fun colours.
