Feature Pattern: Free 9s a Charm Placemat Pattern

>> Wednesday, October 23, 2019

Time to celebrate fall and all the holiday hosting to come! This pattern was actually created as a free pattern to celebrate 300 blog posts - now I'm over 900!

This month's Feature Pattern is the 9's a Charm placemat pattern and it's charm pack friendly. Add a little yardage for the borders and you get four large placemats for your dining pleasure :)

I've used this pattern several times and recently found a beautiful winter charm pack that I had to make into placemats!

Winter Manor charm squares

The line Winter Manor by Holly Taylor is full of traditional rich colors with a variety of prints and tone on tones. Each placemat uses 9 charm squares.

There are several doubles in this charm pack which is good for this pattern. I like to use two of the same print for the pocket so that it doesn't distract from the placemat top.

Winter Manor allover print in 5 colorways

This soft allover print is on all of the colorways and will definitely make it in to a few of the placemats. You only need 36 charms so I might save one of these to use in a potholder.

Winter Manor plaids

Then there is this very manor like plaid to play with too. I can see these being cut in half to use on the left side of the placemat. They are really bold and need some visual space around them like one or two of the tone on tone prints.

Here's my first one. I have an old green linen looking print in my stash that I'm using for the borders. It's a different green than in the Winter Manor collection but it is a traditional shade of green so it works.

I'm going to use this bold and gold paisley fabric that my sister just gifted me with for the backing! Again a bit traditional in its coloring, and it will give me a fun reverse side for the placemats. 


Enjoy!
