Swirly Placemat 2
In case you are new to the world of large applique designs, let me fill you in. A large applique design is one which needs 2 or more hoopings, with the joining completed as you stitch, in the hoop. The beauty of my large applique designs is you can quickly create a 3D Design much larger than your hoop.
Announcing the ‘Big Sister’ to our very popular Swirly Placemat – This is Swirly Placemat 2 – she has a bit more swirl, is available for 4x4 hoops, and with more hooping’s, makes a larger Placemat than the original. A 4x4 hoop makes a 9-inch placemat, with the 9x9 hoop size a whopping 22-inch placemat

Size comparison - small placemat 4x4 hoop, middle placemat 5x7 hoop, large placemat 9x9 hoop
Swirly Placemat 2 is made in multiple hooping’s - joined easily in-the-hoop like a Jigsaw.
We have included 3 versions of this Placemat

 Multi Fabric – multi thread colors  | 
 Multi Fabric One thread color  | 
 One Fabric - One thread color  | 
Why the difference? Apart from the visual differences, there is a time saving – the one fabric/one thread color version only stops your machine during construction, so is much quicker to stitch

Barbara shared her kreative Swirly Placemat - using all her excess threads - and we all have them!!
I made one of these swirly mats using the idea of another member. I did mine on black fabric with white organza over the embroidery thread ends. Used black for quilting & edging so the back is completely black for a plain mat .
