Decided that I'm going to make these for the baby quilts that I made for twins that a friend had that match the quilts. Need to play around with the size, but am going to use the same principal - make two larger sized placemats and use the same directions!!

Never expected to see this again. However, I am still making these because they work so well and look great!

If you buy holiday themed placemats when they are on clearance, the totes could then be a super frugal gift the following year.
Never underestimate the power of frugality!

Exactly! That's what I used to do. This years am missing all the after holiday sales - just wait until I can drive again! It has only been six months!

This is a great idea. I just came across some placements I no longer use. It would be easy to whip that up. Since tomorrow will be a spend day - perhaps I'll incorporate a visit to JoAnne Fabrics to buy to webbing for the handle.
