Here is another of my favorite type of projects. I love to make motifs. This project would not take long at all to complete. I could make one for all of the trays I have now. I think I have three and it just so happens they are all different sizes.

There was an older retired lady in our neighborhood that would have tea parties. Whe would invite the young girls and she would really go all out. We thought we were so special when she invited us. The trays she bought in would have placemats similar to these. Had not thought of those days in a while.
