LoginTake a simple set of striped placemats up a notch with double rows of soumak stitch worked on the loom. These beautiful mats are durable and handwashable, making them the perfect set for everyday and special occasions.
While soumak is often associated with rugs and tapestries, it is also a great technique for embellishing table linens. In these subtly striped placemats, Jodi’s addition of doubled rows of soumak close to each end was key. The soumak works beautifully with the hemstitching, taking the project from simple to special.
