In the Kitchen Stitchin' Blog Hop!

Welcome to the final day of the In the Kitchen Stitchin' Blog Hop. So thankful to Carla of Creatin' in the Sticks for hosting this super fun event. My project is these five Homestead Life collection panels that were won in 2020 from: Tara Reed, who is also the fabric and pattern designer. I did post about them back then, and now finally have them all finished. Sadly, in the move to this apartment, one of the panels got lost (there were six). It had a pig on it. 'Had to make two photos to get them all in the scene. Don't you just love these? Each is quilted with minimal walking-foot quilting (one vertical line near the outer edges of each center image and around the outer edges of each mat). 'Thought that too much quilting might distract from the beautiful printed images. They have Warm N' Natural© batting inside. The backings are muslin, and each mat measures 11" X 18". Keep reading for more info and a list of the blog hoppers.

These placemats look awesome! They have a great country living feel and theme to them. I wonder what strange place you will find the pig hiding one day.

Those are really cute! I use a lot of little mug rugs and some of the printed fabric would work well for those. I hope you're having a good morning! It's actually cool here today! Hugs!

I agree with you on using limited quilting. The designs are really great the way the . Turning the panels into placemats was a wonderful use for them. Great finish, sorry about the missing Piggy.
