    I am so excited to get started on my project. Thank you for the very clear concise tutorial! I grew up using cloth napkins, I am in my 50s and I still use cloth napkins every day! I have several of my mothers old linen tablecloth’s which are worn, stained, and even darned! They haven’t been used in probably 15 years. So, I decided it was time to donate them. I put them in a bag, and had them sitting by the door for three weeks . I’m going through the process of decluttering and minimalizing the house. I removed two very full carloads of stuff! But, I just didn’t have the heart to get rid of my mothers table clothes. So... sorry for the long story, I decided to cut them up and make cloth napkins! I will use these every day! And I will keep those stains and the darned sections to show off the years and love we shared at our family dinner table. Hopefully, I won’t cry every time I get them out !

    This was helpful to me in that I had never seen anyone mark a one inch line all around and work towards that line, plus using that line/crease for using 45 degree angle on ruler to mark the sewing line across the corner. Cannot thank you enough! What pretty fabric you used, and you made this tutorial simple and encouraging. Sometimes, the most beautiful results come from doing a task simply and with very few tools and just the right instructions! Cloth napkins are so nice to make and give as gifts and for everyday....keeping all those paper napkins out of the landfills!
