Patriotic Placemats and Coasters Reviewed by JoAnn Eby on 2009-05-22 *****
These patterns are just too cute. Not only am I going to make some for my family picnic so that each guest has a set but I am also going to teach my daughter-in-law how to make them. Colors can be changed to go with different holidays or occassions so that is great too ! I like Cindy's idea of the stars too and will add them to mine.
