This simple placemat idea comes from an old copy of "Quilts and More" (Winter 2007). I love it when I can justify a purchase by finally using it...even if it is four years later!! You really could make your own pattern by measuring a rectangular piece of tissue paper to the desired size and cutting it on the diagonals (be sure to include a seam allowance). The pattern didn't call for any quilting, but I made another set without it (which I mailed off to relatives in Washington) and wasn't completely satisfied. When I make the next set, I'm going to quilt straight lines on the horizontal. BTW...mug from Target @ $1.99.
