Welcome Shiny, Crafty people! Tim Totten here with sewing projects you can do yourself!

This ridiculously-easy project is part of a series where we take a store-bought quilt and turn it into easy-to-make projects. Many of these projects are home dec items or great gifts for family and friends.

I don't know if you've priced quilted placemats lately, but you might need a mortgage if you have more than four seats at your dining table! Well, maybe that's too hyperbolic, but seriously, nice quilted placemats can cost $10-30 depending upon design and materials. And the variety available may not fit your decor.

Using a store-bought quilt means that for just a few dollars, you can have a full matching set, along with a number of other great items for your home that creates a cohesive design to your dining and kitchen elements.

This is a variation on the first placemat project, which you can find here:    • Store-Bought Quilt Hack #1: Make Easy...  

And I adapted a technique for this that I learned from another amazing creator on YouTube here:    • Такому подарку на Рождество будет каж...  

To make this easy placemat, you'll need the following:
1 Store-bought quilt (I used a king-size Walmart quilt that cost $29.95)
1.5" strips of coordinating fabric
Scissors or rotary cutter
Straight edge or cutting grid
Thread
Sewing Machine

I made this project in just 22 minutes but you could easily do several at once and take perhaps 1 hour to make a set of 4. Buy a general patterned quilt that doesn't have to be fussy-cut to fit certain elements and you'd be able to get dozens of placemats out of each quilt!
