A springtime placemat

 Hello, everyone.

The other day's post was experimentation with fabric and embroidery. Today is the project.


The Carnival season extends from Twelfth Night (Epiphany) until Mardi Gras, the day before Ash Wednesday. (It succeeds rapidly on at the end of the Christmas festivities.) The placemat is themed to go with the whole time of Carnival.

Rosca de Reyes is the Spanish name for the King Cake.

Boeuf Gras (Fat Cow) refers to the ancient custom of giving up meat during the whole season of Lent. 

All of the fabric is from stash.
