Kitchen Confections in Moda's Vintage Modern:
Patchwork Napkins
Editor: Liz Johnson
Wednesday, 16 May 2012 9:00
Paper napkins are... well ... paper! Cloth napkins are more beautiful, more absorbent, and more green. Today is the second
project in our Kitchen Confectionsseries for Moda Fabrics, featuring the new Vintage Modern collection by Bonnie & Camille.
On Monday, during our debut placemats tutorial, we showed you a technique for building patchwork strips called a 'strata.'
Today you get to practice the technique again to make a set of coordinating napkins. Then, hold on to your honey buns.... we
have fourmore projects on tap as well as two super cute downloads of matching recipe cards and gift tags, and a marvelous
Great Giveaway to round it al l out. Our thanks for Moda for sponsoring the entire series.
We're often asked about our fabric choices and why we work almost exclusively with designer fabrics like Vintage Modern fromModa. One word: Quality! This mantra extends beyond fabric to notions, tools and your sewing machine. If you start with quality
materials you're more likely to end with a quality project. With fabric it's a difference you can l iterally feel in the texture, drape
and weight. There are no odd distortions or stiffness. Color is consistent and true. And, everything from pinning to cutting to
stitching goes more smoothly and easily. Plus a designer fabric is just that, produced by creative talent, like Bonnie & Camille,
to be more stylish and unique truly a coordinated work of art.

14 cuts from the Vintage Modern collection by Bonnie & Camille for Moda Fabrics: yardage is shown below both with and
without pre-cuts in the mix
NOTE: You could certainly use fewer cuts, but the beauty of this collection is how marvelously it all mixes and
matches, so we have given you the information for how to build a set that looks just like ours. We also always err on the
side of a l ittle extra versus to-the-inch cuts. This allows for better fussy cutting options.

Create a 'strata'
1. A strata is a quilter's term for a block of pieced fabric made up of strips sewn together side-by-side.The completed strata
can then be cut into smaller strips for the project. It's a wonderful time-saving technique!
2. Collect the TEN 2" x 19" strips.
3. Place the strips in a row in the desired order. Number the strips using an adhesive dot or a small piece of masking tape.
This will help you keep track of the order.

4. With all purpose thread in the top and bobbin, use a " seam allowance to sew together the 2" x 19" strips to create a
20" x 19" strata.
5. To do this, place the first two strips right sides together, aligning one 19" side. Pin in place. Stitch together. Add the third
strip to the remaining 19" raw edge of the sewn pair. Pin and stitch in the same manner. Continue in this manner to create
the finished strata 20" x 19".6. Press all the seam allowances to one side, toward the very first strip.
7. Using a rotary cutter, quilt ruler and cutting mat, square the end of the strata, removing as l ittle fabric as possible. This
means aligning your strata along a cutting mat grid line, then also aligning your ruler along the grid lines and trimming the
edge perfectly straight.
8. Cut the squared strata into four 4" x 20" strips, one for each of the four napkins. Discard the extra 1" strata strip.
NOTE: We folded our strata into thirds to make it easier to cut with a smaller ruler.
NOTE: If you are new to patchwork techniques, take a look at our earlier article on this series' coordinating placemats.
LINK There are addi tional photos of us making the strata for this project.
Finish the napkin
1. Following the diagrams above of our mix-and-match selections (or using your own design), find one one "front set" made
up of one 1" x 20" strip and one 15-" x 20" rectangle.
2. Place the 1" x 20" strip right sides together with the left side of the 4" x 20-" strata strip, aligning the 20" sides.
Pin in place.
3. Using a " seam seam allowance, sew the two pieces together. Press the seam allowance together and toward the
strata.
4. Place the 15" x 20" strip right sides together with the right side of the 4" x 20-" strata strip, aligning the 20"
sides. Pin in place.

5. Using a " seam seam allowance, sew the two pieces together. Press the seam allowance together and toward the
strata.
6. Flip the sewn 20 x 20 square to the right side.
7. Re-thread your machine with white quilting 50wt in the top and bobbin.
8. Topstitch along the long edge of the strata on each side, approximately
" in from seam on the patchwork.
9. This completes the napkin front. Press well.

10. Find the appropriate 20" x 20" back square for the front you've just completed.
11. Place the front and back squares right sides together. Pin around all four sides, leaving a small opening in the middle of
one side for turning.
12. Re-thread your machine with matching thread in the top and bobbin.
13. Using a " seam allowance, stitch around all four sides, stopping and starting at either side of the opening you have left
for turning. Remember to stop at each corner, with your needle in the down position, and pivot.
NOTE: We're using our Janome Quarter Inch foot to keep an exact seam.
14. Clip the corners at a diagonal , but be careful not to clip into your stitching.
15. Turn the napkin right side out. Using a long, blunt-end tool, such as a large knitting needle or a chopstick, poke out each
corner so it is nice and sharp.
16. Press well.

17. Turn in the raw edges of the opening so they are flush with the sewn seam.
18. Re-thread your machine wi th the 50wt quilting thread in the top and bobbin.
NOTE: Although your final topstitch will help close the opening used for turning, with the narrow " hem, we
recommend hand stitching the opening first and then topstitching. An extra measure that helps insure that area doesn't
open up with frequent laundering.
19. Topstitch around all four sides of the napkin approximately " from the edge.
