Summer Solstice Placemats

Designed by Jennifer E. Kwong

These Basketweave placemats draw their inspiration from the colors of the summer night sky during the longest days of the year. Basketweave is a variation of Plain Weave with doubled warp and weft threads, which emphasizes the texture of the weave structure and the saturated colors of Duet Cotton/Linen. The light and airy fabric invites warm weather gatherings and the feeling of simplicity that comes with the summer season. Order a kit.

Beautiful placemats

Beautiful placemats and clear pattern! The placemats were more time consuming than I anticipated. I think in part because I'd never doubled weft threads before. But I loved the final texture it created, and the colors are gorgeous!
