Facebook Live: Orange Peel Applique Placemats

Hi! It's Lisa Ruble from Quilty Zest and I'm here with a project to brighten your holiday table - new placemats! These placemats are made using the orange peel block. This block can be made using curved piecing or some fancy folding techniques. Or...you can make it the easy way using raw edge fusible applique! I will be showing how to make these in my next Facebook Live in the Therm O Web Craft Room Facebook Group. Join me tonight November 12th, at 7:30 PM CST, as I share how to sew an Orange Peel Placemat. I made my sample using my Find Your Way fabrics from Benartex (love those teals, oranges and yellows together!), but during the Live I'll be making this more Christmas-y version (scroll to the bottom to see it). Watch the video replay here! Here's what you'll need to make (2) placemats:

• 1 fat quarter each 4 background prints (I used Orange, Dark Orange, Gold and Yellow Wander prints)
• 1 fat quarter each 2 orange peel prints (I used Teal and Aqua Wander prints)
• 3/8 yard binding fabric (I used Dark Orange Wander)
• 1/2 yard backing fabric
• HeatnBond Lite Sewable Iron-on Adhesive
• HeatnBond Fusible Fleece
• HeatnBond Lightweight Fusible Interfacing
• Basting Adhesive
• Pressing Paper

To make it, you'll need (4) 6-1/2" background squares and green and red scraps. Watch the video to learn more about how to make it.
