I used a left over piece of blue fleece for the backing, and quilted a stipple over the tumblers and did echo quilting on the edges. LOL I sound like I actually quilt, which I do a very poor job of. One of my corners for the binding actually turned out square though! YAY lol. I bound it using left over Sunshine strips from an old project.
I ran into a problem with the baby quilt. The backing/fleece panel I bought turns out to be the wrong size for what I want. The way the panel was I'd end up cutting off the little duckies heads so I think I'll head over tomorrow and try and find some plain fleece for it or an all over repeating pattern.
The placemats didn't even enter my world so hopefully this week.

I like your doll quilt, very cute with the yellow and blue fabrics. Great gift.
I've been admiring your tumbler quilts. I have an "orphan" template that I'm thinking could be used for tumblers. When I get a chance I'll measure and ask if that is the size you use. Would be good to have a use for it. I think I bought it when I first started quilting thinking it would be great for a charm quilt.
I'm glad to read you didn't cut off any duck heads in the making of the baby quilt...that would not have been good! Your tumbler quilt has a nice look, I like it, one lucky doll!
Is that an Oakland A's ornament.....it's along way from home.
Cute doll quilt! I love those blue and yellow fabrics! I have no idea whose favourite ornaments those are, but they are all very nice!
The doll quilt is sweet and so are your ornaments. Love the bear.
