Every time I shop the fabric stores I can't pass up the opportunity to indulge in some of the latest season's cotton prints. They are fun and make great seasonal items for the home. So inspired by the choices this fall I did a series of posts for Craftsy on making tablecloths and napkins out of fall inspired prints.
These are some of the easiest sewing projects for the home to make. With precise cutting and some know how on how to achieve the squarest mitered corners, they can be made in no time at all.
Here is the link for making tablecloths which provides instructions on how to measure tables properly to determine fabric yardage along with helpful tips for sewing a simple cloth:

And, here is the link to learn how to make simple square napkins: how to make square napkins
Sneak peak: the series continues with a post on making place mats. Look for it in the coming weeks.
I don't often make much for the home these days as I concentrate most of my time either teaching or making clothing, but these were a fun diversion. Every once in a while you need to step out of the box and do something different.
