Hexagon Placemats!

I bought this gorgeous fabric at Joann's and planned to make fun summer placemats.  After browsing the Internet, I decided on the hexagon design.


I made an equilateral triangle template with Word and the rest was pretty easy!


To make it super quick, I sewed it together inside out and turned it to skip the binding step.


Next, I might make a matching pot holder.

    These are so fun and summery! I have never tried making placemats in a shape other than rectangular, but I might have to try it. I love the fruit and veggie prints and the backing you chose :)

    Thanks for joining in the dinner party!
