I want to turn some really nice tea towels into placemats and want to skip is having a backside. :/ I wondering what you thought if I used vinyl on both sides then sewed the edges to reinforce it so it doesn't split over time? Or would it be better to try and not cut any corners?? Thank you.

Thanks for the tip about iron on vinyl. I found that instead of using the paper I peeled off, using parchment paper over the fabric and vinyl worked better for me. I can proect my ironing<br /> board with a bigger paper and protect my iron from the melting vinyl as well . The parchment paper takes the heat well.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1014717526062123196.post-58833933692546818852014-03-01T13:11:25.334-08:002014-03-01T13:11:25.334-08:00They didn't have the iron-on vinyl at JoAnn...They didn't have the iron-on vinyl at JoAnn's and I didn't have time to go elsewhere - but I found the flannel-backed vinyl cloth and it worked great too! However - I am not sure how you used 2 yds of fabric :-) (one of each) to make 4? I wanted to make 6 so bought 3 yds of the fabric and I have about half of it leftover! Good thing it wasn't expensive and I used a 50% off coupon. now what to do w/ this fabric :-) add it to the rest of the fabric I have I guess - haha!

Either there would be plastic hangover around the edges (to ensure it was sealed) or there would be exposed fabric edges, which could get quite dirty. This was my reasoning anyway. If you do decide to try it, please let me know the results! It sure would make the project much easier!!<br />Thanks for reading!Little Beanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08294459168348967212noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1014717526062123196.post-22012213328708763392013-02-22T07:28:01.853-08:002013-02-22T07:28:01.853-08:00Hello!

So I followed your directions and have a great set of 5 reversible mats. I found that you could piece the vinyl for the 5th mat rather than buy another roll of vinyl.
