Notes:

I am completing mats for a guild exchange originally undertaken in 2008-2009. I will be weaving something like 14-15 placemats to complete the project for two different groups of 8 participants (16 total). I love Bertha Gray Hayes patterns because they are visually interesting, and fairly easy to weave. (At least this one was!) I am able to complete several mats in the course of a few hours after work!
