I Am Never Tired of Gingham

I made 6 more picnic napkins in red gingham, the classic picnic look.  However, don't think these napkins are only for summer, as they work beautifully for any meal away from home, including school lunches.  Do you hate to be reminded that school is coming?  I just cut out a school jumper for Genevieve this evening.

 
So, these napkins are the classic picnic look and I had so much fun staging a little photo shoot with watermelon for them. However, there was a kitchen smear on the camera lens that I only saw after the pictures were uploaded.  Drat.
 
 
The new, un-smeared photos are in my shop.  Whew.
 
And I have a big swath of navy gingham to hem into napkins for our house, too.

    What a pleasing picture; I love the addition of the red band on the white pocket. I am so glad you explained the slight fuzziness - I see this way all the time because of translucent floaters in my eyes, but I thought they had suddenly gotten worse!
