Napkins!!

A while ago I was planning on making some cloth napkins - I use cloth napkins exclusively at home and the ones I have are the plain cheap ones from Target and Ikea. At about the same time, Anne Marie posted on Instagram that she was looking for some pattern testers for a new napkin pattern. Good timing, huh??

So here is what I came up with. She released the pattern Monday, and it is on sale all week!

I used scraps for the piecing, and Kona Silver for the gray. All of the backing fabrics are different confetti dots colors. Since I used scraps, I didn't prewash these, but that would be best since they will get a lot of use! I think I might make four more to round out the set!

    I need to make some myself! These are adorable! I might make some for Easter for our hostess! Are they hard to keep clean?

    very nice but I would not want people dirtying these as they are far too nice to use!

    Wow..all that work and all that beautiful colors and patterns.. I wouldn't want anyone to use the napkins! Great job! Inspired me to get going on some placemats I need to make for my table! Found you on Needle and Thread Thursday Linky!

    Gorgeous colour choices, I love how they're all different with the grey linking them.

    I have to laugh at all the comments regarding not wanting to get the napkins dirty. Isn't that part of the experience? You enjoy them, get them dirty and then...have fun making some more!

    They're gorgeous! I've made placemats (they get dirty and wash brilliantly!) but not napkins ... yours are stunning :)
