Sewing Notes and Tips• Finished placemat size 12” x 18”• All seam allowances are 1/4”• Prewash all your fabrics so your placemat doesn’t shrink unevenly once you wash it

after use.• If you plan on placing oven hot items onto your placemat, consider 1 or 2 layers of an

insulated batting such as Insul~Bright by The Warm Company.
