Were they put together by sandwiching the three layers (top and bottom right sides together on top of the batting) then turning inside out to leave the batting inside. (like a quillow is put together?) Hope that makes sense. Looking at the placemats it doesn’t appear that there is any binding.

Yours are so beautiful and how wonderful to have children help out. Thank you explaining Aichaku , now I know what to call the things I treasure most , things of no great value to anyone but me, the things that have aquired much Aichaku before they became mine and I am now adding more before they become my childrens.

I am currently working on a set of placemats now for my family (my goal is a set of 6) using scraps from my stash. I "accidently" made the first placemat by doing a sample block to try out a new quilting technique and to test the duaribility of the fabrics I would use. After washing and drying my quilt block, it ended up in my kitchen...and my kids started arguing who got to use the placemat at mealtimes. I loved seeing the samples posted here...oh the possibilities! How fun to discover that others are having fun working on the same projects that I am working on now. I was thrilled to read this post.
