Dresden Placemat

October 11, 2020 By A Spoonful of Sugar - 1 Comment

Dresden Placemat PDF Sewing Pattern by A Spoonful of Sugar on Etsy.

*** New Pattern in our Etsy Store ***

I love sharing a cup of tea with friends and family. There is something about the ritual of brewing tea and drinking from pretty fine bone china cups that really lifts the spirits. Here are some pretty Dresden Placemats I made to coordinate with my favourite tea set – Polka Rose, by Royal Albert. After sharing some images on instagram, we had loads of requests for the pattern. I am pleased to announce that the Dresden Placemat PDF Sewing Pattern is available in our Etsy store – I hope you will love it as much as we do.

Dresden Placemats are perfect for a special afternoon tea. Featuring a “scrappy” dresden plate with 16 petals and a coordinating centre, positioned on a low volume hexagon.  This project can be easily completed in an afternoon. This is a great project to use your favourite scraps and is best suited to fabrics with small scale print.  Make up a set for your next special tea, or use seasonal fabrics for Halloween or Christmas.

This is the perfect project to use all your favourite colour coordinated fabrics – small print florals, polka dots, ginghams, and more. The scrappy fabrics add to the patchwork charm of the Dresden Placemat.

Be warned – it is hard to stop at making only one. Before you know it, you may have a set of placemats in a rainbow of pretty colours.

Inspired by ancient pharaoh queens, they draw on generations of women, culture, sacrifice, and resilience to find their strength.Tess calls this “the book of her heart,” weaving her family history into a story of sisterhood, identity, faith, strong women, and delicious Egyptian food.While reading, I kept thinking about the three Albi sisters — Sarah, Aya, and Lola — each navigating their own challenges, each fighting for the life she deserves.So I stitched three Heart Bookmarks, one to represent each sister. A tiny handmade nod to their courage, creativity, and connection.Each bookmark is made from quilting cotton, wool felt, lace, and a silky tassel — quick to sew, lovely to gift, and perfect for marking your place in a story full of strong women.I was completely captivated by The Cairo Bridal Shop. The relationships between the sisters are truly the heart of the story — tender, complicated, loyal, and full of resilience.I loved the structure: six dresses, each inspired by a Pharaoh queen, each opening a new chapter of their lives. The cultural details, the food, the history, the Cairo setting — it all felt vivid and immersive.A beautiful, emotional story of family, identity, courage, and the strength we find in the women around us.If you only read one book this year, make sure it is The Cairo Bridal Shop.If you’d like to stitch your own Heart Bookmark, the pattern is free.Comment BOOKMARK and I’ll send you the link.A sweet, quick project — perfect paired with a good book.Thanks for being here — I love sharing small sewing projects that bring joy to your day.
