lace-plastic-placemat-handbag

...it's even getting easier...two lace-plastic-placemats...two circles to be cut in the middle of the upper third of the placemat...both sewn together...a flower or brooch added...that's it...the lace-plastic-placemat-handbag.







this is what you need




- two lace-plastic-placemats

- flower or brooch

- glass or any other small round object

- pen

- small scissors

- paper clips

- thread

- sewing machine


this is what you have to do




- using the glass as a template, draw a circle in the middle of the upper third onto the placemats.




- repeat the same with the second placmat.




- cut out the circles with the scissors.




- attach both placemats to each other using paper clips.




- ensure that the placemats lie flush against each other.




- sew along all three edges






- add a flower or a brooch.




...of course it works with any other placemats. too.
