Beautiful. What is it about scrappy that is just so attractive? I'm always drawn to scrappy looks, too!

Mrs. Mel, you put these colors together yourself? these are just lovely :D
Glad somebody has the knack, I have to work, work, work on combinations, to get them just right. Good for you :wink:

Very nice!

I like scraps too.

And I also like making soup.

Could this be rather like quilting in the kitchen? Using up the scraps and leftovers, and turning them into something warm and satisfying?

FF- you may be on to something there. I love scrappy quilts and am known in my circle as a great soup maker. (I just shake the cupboards and add whatever falls out to the supper leftovers. LOL!)

Mrs. Mel- these placemats are really, really nice!! I think you have a good eye for controlled scrappy- at first glance I would have thought they were all bought to go together!

And VERY cool colors on that YBR!! You can send that one my way if you want... :0)
