Picnic Placemats

I almost forgot to post about this! For the holidays, I made picnic placemats for my sister-in-law and her husband. While still living in CA, they often would go on long bike rides along the beach, winery hopping, and the like. Now that they are living in Chicago, we're pretty sure they'll do alot of riding to the lake and local parks once the weather warms a bit. Now they have a handy place to eat on their lap wherever they choose to stop :) . The pattern is from Lotta Jansdotter's Simple Sewing and isn't this just the most perfect fabric for these placemats?!
