You can use these designs as Quilt in the Hoop as I have done in the place mat (I used the small size) or as regular designs as I did in the quilt top (the medium size). You get instructions for both methods. I'm going to make the quilt top into a lap quilt to use in the winter in my sewing room. They can also make a very appropriate machine cover. The place mats would make a perfect place setting when you host your local stitching group. The corner designs can be put together for coasters to match. The designs come in 4x4, 5x5 and 6x6 size. If you purchase be sure to download the free design for your corners!
