Hard to believe I started embroidering these placemats at the start of 2023. Now we are a mere 10 days away from starting 2024. They are however a labor of love as each panel embroidered for 2 hours or longer with two panels needed to make one placemat.
Blue Wildebeest
Elephants
Panels can be embroidered combining the sun and/or moon, but I chose to embroider the top (orange for the horizon) and bottom (blue resembling water) using the same colors to depict the setting sun's reflection in the water.
Rhino's
Hippo's
Ever since I saw these designs at Kreativ Kiwi, I thought it would look stunning on this tie dye fabric but at the time the blue was sold out locally. Luckily when I enquired via Facebook where I could find it, I discovered Curtain Dream with a whole selection in a wide variety of colors and at a third of the price.
Giraffes
