Kyah's School Placemat



My daughter Kyah started the first grade today and she was so excited!  Her new teacher requested that the children bring a cloth napkin with their name on it to use as a placemat while eating their lunch.  Well, I didn't want to give up a napkin from one of my sets and why go buy something when I could make it!  Now she has her own custom placemat with her name embroidered on it!

We made the batik a couple of years ago following this fun tutorial.  We had this little scrap left over and used it for the center and the purple corduroy material was from one of her favorite dresses that she has outgrown.  If its good material, we'll use it!
