Reviewed by Teri Kukla on 2012-09-04 *****
Instead of making these dishcloths, I made them a little longer and turned them into placemats. I made two light blue with a dark blue border and two dark blue with a light blue border. Turned out really nice! The test one I made was a royal purple with a cream border and it sits on my vanity in my bedroom. So pretty!
