I wanted to quickly share how I made these cloth napkins for my tablesetting:
I knew the napkins had to be double sided, so that would mean using two pieces back to back and stitching them together somehow. Enter Stitch Witchery…
I figured to make this as aesthetically pleasing as possible, I would need to trim the top piece around .5″ shorter around the perimeter, fold the bottom piece over, and use the stitch witchery to “hem” them together. Like this…
After my pieces were cut, it was time to iron. I made sure the bottom piece was long enough to fold over and hide the witchery…
Once everything looked good, I folded the piece over, like so…
And that’s the story of my $11 custom napkin-placemats.
Master bathroom reno to resume shortly… having fun picking out materials now. I’ll be back soon to share the plans!
