I have a quick and easy quilt tutorial to share with you today for some cute and happy placemats! I think you will really enjoy this tutorial!
I don’t know about you, but we always use place mats on our table all the time and these are perfect for summer out on the deck.
Change the colors and make them for Christmas, Halloween, or any other time of the year.
Summer Placemats
Each placemat is approximately 12″ x 16″
I used a fat quarter bundle of Marblehead Pleasing Pastels by Ro Gregg for Fabri-Quilt for my summer placemats and will also be sharing a matching table topper made with the same fabrics.
Here is a better look at all the beautiful fabrics, there are 17 fat quarters! I really like the marbleized look and the fabrics work perfectly as blends with other quilt fabrics.
I picked six different fat quarters to use to make placemats.
Cutting:
Cut the six fat quarters into 2 ½″ strips.
For each placemat you will need:
- 24 – 2 ½ inch x 2 ½ inch squares
- 12 – 2 ½ inch x 4 ½ inch rectangles
Purchase an ad-free printable version of my
quilt here
Sewing:
- Use a ¼ inch seam allowance
- Mix and match the different colors of blocks
- Sew 2 of the 2½” x 2½” squares and 1 – 2½” x 4½” rectangle together
- Each section will measure 4½” x 4½”
Make 12 blocks for each placemat
Arrange the blocks in a pleasing design.
Hopefully you won’t have two of the same color touching. After I took this photo I started piecing and realized the bottom left block needed to be turned again.
Sew 4 rows of 3 blocks or…….3 rows of 4 blocks, I have no idea why I sewed them this way!
Then sew the rows together. Your place-mat will measure 12½” x 16½”.
Add your backing and batting and quilt as desired. Make your binding with the leftover 2 ½ inch strips using my machine binding tutorial.
They look great out on our deck and perfect with the flowers on the glass table.
They also look great in the kitchen.
We now have four beautiful happy placemats to use on our deck or in the kitchen.
The Summer placemat tutorial was originally posted in July of 2015 and has been updated.
Table Topper tutorial
I also have enough of the fat quarters leftover to make a table topper to go with the placemats. I used a different block pattern but everything coordinates perfectly. Be sure and check out that tutorial!
I hope you enjoyed this tutorial! This blog post has been converted to an optional PDF that’s optimized for printing.

We use placemats every day. I have made most of mine and change my theme each month. I may just have to make these . I usually like to have 6 as we often have 203 grandkids eat with us. They are young and sometimes messy and rarely use a napkin, but I just like the feel of a placemat under my plates and I love the cloth napkins. As always, thanks for the inspiration.
Candi
Connie,
Again you have outdone yourself. So simple yet so beautiful. Keep up the great work. Love you sense of colors.

So simple and so beautiful! Love the idea of different fabric choices for different times of the year. I am thinking of using Canadian themed fabrics for Canada Day placemats 🇨🇦!
Joan Sheppard
Thanks! Wish I could make the little icon on the side give you 100 hearts for this. So cool like a big bowl of sherbert. I needed a project for doing a tutorial at our Quilt Bee – just 10 of us, about free motion quilting and this will be perfect. At home we use placemats all over the house even the bathroom.
Everyone has their “fav” at the dinner table to put over the tablecloth (kids age 5 and 7). This will be so fun to make but especially love the color choice. Thanks for this – I love seeing the comments and wonder if things have changed for any of these people. Must feel like a big extended family for you! Thanks again.
Shirley Polmateer
Lovely. Looks like summer. We do use place mats and a table cloth. A great way to use up little pieces. I can see the blocks positioned in a different way. Might have to get busy. You did a great job. Thanks for sharing.
Kathi Riemer
Thank you for the tutorial. I also use placemats for every meal and I’m always looking for cute patterns. This is a keeper.

Hi there Connie,
We don't use place mats…we don't even sit at the table!!! Our kitchen table is constantly covered by whatever quilty project I am working on, so we sit in the living room! we do use table runners on the coffee table!
Thanks!

When growing up, we always used placemate and I still do. I also use cloth napkins too.
Brenda
I seldom use placemats because my table is always covered with my cutting mat, rulers and fabrics. But, every so often if only for a day or special occasion I do clear it off and set the table with placemats, dishes and a centerpiece. I have always thought table settings can be beautiful. Thank you for the chance to win these gorgeous fabrics! Have a wonderful day.

I don't use placemats, BUT I use them beside me at the desk, where My laptop lives. Your applecore placemats are so pretty.

I do not use placemats on my table. Frequently my table is covered in papers, art projects, whatever has been plopped there. We tend to eat at the kitchen bar. In my ideal world, my table would be all cute and "dressed" appropriately. 😉
Lu
Thank you Connie for the pm tutorial and the fabrics you used sure are pretty, as I told them on their site. I don't use placemats but know people who do and I can see a set being made for them soon, thanks to you. Have a great day.

I checked out Inspired by Fabric and comments over there, too.

I love using placemats for special occasions, or when I just feel like dressing up the table a bit. And I always use placemats outside on the patio. My favorite are my Christmas placemats. However, I don't have summer placemats (I should really do something about that) and this bundle would work up well for that!
txquilter
Yes we do when we eat at the table! We usually eat in front of the TV.
Marjorie Nath
We use to use placemats quite often, but since we moved to Mexico, I haven't found the box that they are in (if it even made it down here) So I should really make some new ones.

We rarely use placemats because the table is usually covered with clutter created by my husband including postage stamps he sorts for his collection. I'm proud to say that it's never cluttered with fabric.

I don't usually use them. I like the looks of them, just never have them out.

Hi Connie…..Since there are just the 2 of us, I only use placemats when we have company, but I make them for our children and married grandchildren, who do use placemats on a daily basis. The fabrics are so pretty on their own, but would blend nicely with patterned prints as well. lv2bquilting2@comcast.net

Great tablemats. I use placemats and coasters on my inside and outside tables. I've got them co ordinated with the decor for inside and the seasons for outside. They just get thrown in the washing machine once a week and put on the line to freshen them up

I love placemats. They look nice on the table and I just toss them in the wash. I do spray them with Scotchguard to prevent stains.

Very pretty placemats Connie. I really like the quilting you've done to them and think I might even be able to handle that. I sure wouldn't guarantee straight lines like yours though. haha
I always used to have placemats on my table until I moved to this house years ago. The kitchen is SO tiny; well, not really tiny, but the layout is very bad so the only table we can have in there is only about 4 feet long. The placemats are practically stacked over each other on that tiny table so a runner is about the best I can do. When the holidays come and we have the kids coming over though, we set up a banquet sized table in the living room, and yea that takes up my entire living room sadly, but for the holidays I either use a tablecloth, or placemats. The placemats I had though were very old so I got rid of them. I need to make more of them. Gee, maybe since our dining table is in the living room with the Christmas tree, maybe I should make the placemats match a Christmas tree skirt which I very much need as well. LOL
teachpany
Great colors, and a cute way to make a scrappy placemat. Thanks for sharing the idea. I do use placemats, but haven't made any for summer. I need to!

We use placemats, but I need more so I can change them out once in awhile.

Okay…now that I saw that pattern it's on my to do list to make some placemats! Like that the pattern is fat quarter friendly! Thanks for the inpsiration Connie.

We use placemats in our formal dining…which means we have company. Hmmm…maybe I should make some for hubby and I to use daily???

We use fabric placemats every day but they need washing so often we'd be better with wipe clean ones! x

I only use placemats at the holidays when I have company. Love these placemats. They are just so cheerful.
