What is a Quiltsmart Printed Interfacing Pattern?
This is a sewing pattern printed directly onto lightweight interfacing. It is not a finished placemat. You provide the fabric and sewing supplies.
Instead of tracing templates or marking sewing lines yourself, the pattern is printed on the interfacing. The printed lines guide you as you sew, helping make the construction easier and more accurate.
Quick Start: Make your first Placemattie
1. Choose your fabric. This is the fun part! Try a favorite print, novelty fabric, fussy-cut design, or fat quarter.
2. Start with the Pack if you're new to Placematties. It includes the instructions and two printed interfacing panels for four placemats.
3. Follow the printed lines. The interfacing gives you a sewing guide, so there is less measuring and marking.
4. Sew, press, and finish.
5. Enjoy your new 13" x 17" placemat.
6. Want more? Order additional printed panels and keep sewing.
